It’s just a bunch of traveling through the woods that is very detached from the purpose of the mission, which is to find the supernatural killer. Also the captured nuns. I forgot why they were even traveling because it’s just an onward slog with internal monologue and conversation that does little to serve the plot.

I’m at the “big reveal” part and I’m having trouble envisioning the environment they are in. Also it’s like some of the characters vanished from the scene. Ishtvan’s reaction makes him look sort or unintelligent. He’s a talented warrior but doesn’t detect a human transforming into a bear the size of a horse behind him.

It’s hard to envision what is happening in this book. I don’t perceive a tactile sense of geography or stakes. There’s no sensory anchor: no map in the mind, no sense of changing terrain, no reason for each stop to exist beyond “travel to the next event.”
