adventurous emotional sad tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

The only thing that makes this not a perfect 5/5 is that sometimes the descriptions are a bit tedious and you have to reread the same paragraph 10 times. 
But it’s so exciting every time I pick it up. And I get so hype seeing what happens next.

Animal death

there is a pack of wolves that die in a hunt. Young cubs are killed. One does survive. It is an important moment of the story.

Upon reread this is definitely mostly set up for the rest of the series. I can't believe everything that's been foreshadowed. 
I felt a lot of things while reading and I just love these characters so much. I can't wait to get to the rest of the series. Especially since I don't remember what happens next.

It took a while for me to actually get invested in this one. But when I did, I didn't want to put it down. I'm very intrigued to see what everyone's roles end up being.

And I definitely don't trust those Vin Thalun people. They're up to something that seems will benefit only them and will cause a lot of damage.
