I very much enjoyed this fantasy! Usually the beginning or other explanitory parts of fantasy stories can be a bit boring and it will take me some time to really get into it: you have to learn a bout a new world and the rules of magic and politics but in this case it was easy for me to ease into the story and world. The writing style was very pleasant to read and the plot, though not extremely complicated, quite satisfactionary. Most of all, though, it is the characters that make or break a story and this book got its characters quite right. I would not say that this book was a literary gem, but it was as good as I expected: a fun fantasy read.
