The author clearly has a wonderfully creative imagination and I enjoyed the story. But I'm not sure the decision to write from the POV of everybody except Weylyn was a good one, because he came across more as a symbol than a real person. Meanwhile the other characters are nuanced and multi-dimensional, even many of the antagonists. I would be interested to see where Ruth Emmie Lang goes from here; this certainly is a unique debut novel.
