Kingdom of Souls

Not my favorite book of the year. Very dark. Ridiculous romance and misunderstanding tropes. It does have interesting world building in and magic systems

3.5 stars
I really enjoyed the beginning of this, but it dragged a lot in the middle. I'm intrigued enough to continue the series.

The first 4 hours were a slog. The rest was delightful. I'm still not sure who the “good guys” are and that is awesome.
