It's a good audiobook! I enjoy the storytelling aspect and the relationship between the magician and the imprisoned scribe. It's light and easy to read. Not a lot of depth to it, but enjoyable.

So far, I'm enjoying it immensely! It reminds me quite a lot of The Life Impossible by Matt Haig. I think people who enjoyed that book would find a lot of similarities with this one. Ocean. Magic. Finding meaningful connections in unexpected places.

Why was this book not split into four books????

IT'S TOO LONG. and the names require a little too much brain power. It's a good thing I'm listening to it because reading it would probably just frustrate me 🤷‍♀️

This is a long one! Part 1 was the most exciting so far, parts 2 and 3 have less action... I'm still waiting to see how the different storylines all weave together. Stay tuned!

This book has too many words. And I don't mean that it's too long. No, it has too many descriptive words and long sentences and stories within stories within worlds that exist outside of time and it is possibly the most confusing book I have ever read. There are beautiful parts to it but mostly I am finishing it because I can't remain this confused for no reason. Good storytelling, could be half as long.

Bring some tissues. This book will break your heart in a million ways.
