Initial thoughts: Thanks to a long haul flight, I had the time and zero distractions to read Mirage cover to cover. I'm glad I took this one along — it was entertaining, character-driven but not overly complex. In that regard, it was good for me because I can't concentrate too intensely with my motion sickness. The plot wasn't the most original but coupled with the growth and interactions on the characters, it worked well. I also liked that Mirage is a fantasy novel inspired by Moroccan culture and mythology. That made the world building all the more interesting to me because that's a setting I've definitely not come across before. I definitely look forward to the sequel!
Note: I received an advanced reading copy from a local distributor in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
