The Blade Itself (Gollancz)

3.99 ⭐️ I heard the first book has a lot of setup and character building that is meant to prepare for books 2 and 3. Checks out - not a whole lot of plot going on but I enjoyed getting to know the characters. Looking forward to the remaining 2 books.

Hope vol 2 gets read faster. Due to library borrowing time-frames, this book took me a VERY long time to read. Loved the drama.
