What can I say about this book other than it's fantastic. It is dense, but the world building is supreme. An excellent mix of fantasy and science Fiction, similar in many ways to the type of story we see in Star Wars. Fans of both science fiction and fantasy will find lots to love here, if you can get through the slow pacing and dense detailed world building. (If you like Tolkien and can handle all the details therein, you'll be fine here).
