Decent as far as low fantasy goes. The pacing was pretty slow, too much time was spent on unnecessary details. I guess some magic is better than none but the magic was not exciting at all. The only reason I even gave it three stars was because I really like that at the end things finally started to come together and it was actually interesting.
