A bit late with the review but better than never i say!
This book is really good for hardened fantasy readers. Flawed and badass characters, plenty of violent swordfights... And a strong female lead!
I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the series for sure.

I liked the basic storyline and how fleshed out the characters were. There were a lot of typographic errors in the book and scenes didn't seem to be in the proper order. With some work, I think this could be a nice start to an interesting series.

Did not technically finish. The book was just too violent and graphic for me, so trigger warning for anyone else who might be upset by rape or violent murders of infants and children described much too matter-of-factly. Wasn’t for me for that reason (but I’m a mother of two small children). I liked the world that was created and wanted to overlook those things but couldn’t.
