This was a fun little read for something out of my comfort zone. I don't usually go for historical fiction but this is so far back in time that it almost doesn't count, I feel like? At least it's far back enough that most of the things I don't like about historical fiction don't really exist yet.
In terms of plot, this was a fairly simple book. It was a fairly quick read and honestly I thought it could've benefitted from just a little padding; maybe some more time with his dad, some more lore about the clans and their religion, stuff like that, but overall this was pretty well-rounded.
I will say the tone and structure of the writing reads a bit more mature than middle grade, in my opinion, but that might skewed because I don't read middle grade that often.
I don't know if I'm going to continue the series, but this first book was pretty good!
