This was a lot of fun! And despite being 729 pages it was a surprisingly quick read. It didn't feel as long as it was.
There was a really interesting mix of heist, religion, cultures, and dragons.
I only have two complaints:
- There was a romance angle that I wasn't crazy about, and I think the book would have been better off without it. It was already a good story and the romance just felt weak and unnecessary.
- At the end there was a time travel element that I wasn't crazy about. I don't usually like time travel, so if a story has it then I prefer it be really upfront about being a time travel book. But this was really sprung on us and I'm still not sure how I feel about it. Luckily it didn't end up being a huge component all things considered so I could kind of brush it off.
