The book picked up after page 240, but damn, how is this Mark’s thirteenth book? Either he needs to be humbled or he needs a better editor (probably both). The plot is interesting, but the execution leaves much to be desired

“What if she actually had gone blind? What if the light was still there and her eyes had simply ceased to work?” I know what blindness is, Mark, thank you

Why does Mark Lawrence repeat things two or three times like I’m not reading the damn book?

A first chapter full of YA fantasy tropes. A second chapter that begs for empathy for characters the author has built no rapport with. This book does not promise.
