Ben is on page 16 of 736 of The Strength of the Few (Hierarchy, #2)

Different from the first book which is refreshing. I like the 3 versions of Vim which turns the story from a 1 POV story to a 3 POV, but of the same protagonist which is a first for me.

The Harry Potter trope is becoming harder to ignore as Vis enters the academy. An orphaned prodigy. Disliked by most as he gets himself into troubles. Sneaking in the nights for side quests.

I find Vis an unconvincing character thus far. Too cold and calculated, as if the only book he's read is 'the 48 laws of power'. I find that, and the lack of teen-like qualities (even in the inner narration) pretty unconvincing despite his predicament.

The writing is good, but I don't find intriguing ideas or relatable (believable) characters and I'll probably DNF if it continues.

The world and setting, to me, feel like an amalgamation of fantasy tropes. Child prodigy from a royal family goes undercover in a conquering nation (Dune). Is later "rescued", a mistreated orphan (Harry Potter). In a world where people's strength comes from others' (War Breaker) and I'm sure there are more along the way.
