Very recommendable! Light fantasy vibes while feeling very unique. Interesting world building without feeling heavy or hard to ramp up on. Loved all the characters - they feel deep and well-rounded. Much is hinted at during the story without being immediately explained, which gives a feeling of mystery without getting heavy with exposition or requiring too much reading between the lines.

Parts of the book felt like a perfect D&D campaign, where a hook leads you off in one direction, but then stuff happens and you end up doing something completely different.

It wasn't particularly thought-provoking, but easy, fun and different. Refreshing <3
