Very whimsical and fun so far. The writing is captivating, the story thus far has enough information to grasp you but doesn’t give too much away. The adventure is just starting and it has me so curious what is around the next corner.

Listening on Audiobook

Loving it

Chuggin along

Listened to the first 5 chapters on audiobook. Enjoying this very much so far. Usually I’m not too into nonfiction war books because they tend to be information vomit but so far this is crafting an elegant story and I love it

Bought copies of this for Amaris and I for Christmas because the movie is a comfort movie for us and I thought it would be fun to read the source material. We are planning on reading together and discussing. Got to chapter 3 and I love it so far. Even tho I know every word of the movie it’s still fun to read and fall into the cute little world of magic and mystery.

No clue what page I’m on since I use the audiobook but I have 45min left of listening and I’m on chapter 48 so shit is getting juicy. Paul, I belief from seeing the movie, is about to fight fade routha and potentially kill the emperor or some shit idk. The character development recently has been amazing. The 2 year time jump was a little confusing at first but sorted itself out and was overall done well.

Really enjoying this. Basically listened to all of book two today on audiobook and I’m thoroughly enjoying it. I’ve seen the first two movies so the plot is familiar but that isn’t taking away from it. The prose and the set dressing and the atmosphere are all beautiful and the narrator provokes real emotion as I’m listening. Excited to listen to book three and potentially read on in the series.
