The storyline is interesting but this particular universe is just not my cup of tea. The story is well written. I recommend it to anyone that loves music and fantasy.

This was pretty neat. A very cool glance into the magic system of this series. I am curious about reading the main books for it, though I am a little worried that describing the magic may sometimes bog it down a little. We’ll see, I guess. I did enjoy this enough to give the books a try eventually!
