TBD - some percolating needs to happen.

Right. I definitely loved this, but I think I need to reread it to be able to say that I REALLY loved it. I think I was trying to get through it by the end of the month and it was quite dense and I was so busy trying to figure out the magic system and characters that a lot of the philosophy went over my head and that's a really big part of this book. So I'd love to reread it and take my time and let it all absorb.

But there was so much to praise. The writing had such a strong personality, all of the characters were so rich and their relationships complex, the world was beyond intriguing and I just really enjoyed spending my time in this story.
