Very tragically torn--I loved the tone, the setting, the writing, and the magic system, but was not won over by characters, relationships, or plot. Doubtful I will be continuing the series.

This book was unexpected. I like that the slow pace kept me interested because of the characters. The world building was complex but followable. I was hoping for some things to happen in this first book that didn’t, but the author did a nice job writing something that felt unusual for today. This review is a bit rambly, I know, but the story still probably deserves five stars.

IJzig past wel goed bij dit boek. De sfeer is kil en onaangenaam, maar het verhaal, de wereld en de personages zijn interessant. Hier en daar was het wat traag, maar ik ga zeker de overige delen lezen, want ik wil graag weten hoe dit verder gaat.
