I was blown away by this book!I enjoyed the world building and the way in which information about the characters were portrayed. It leaves me to wonder what will happen in book 2.One of the best fantasy I have read.However one important element missing was humor.I understand that Akiva was in a lot of grief but humor is something which enables readers to understand and relate to characters from deeper within.We laugh and really get into the books more with humor, especially important in high fantasy.Throne of Glass by Sarah J Mass is an awesome fantasy series where with humor we are able to connect with those characters with a deeper passion.
