This is a long and complicated book with a lot of world building, and apparently took several years to write. It is difficult to imagine that it will remain a stand-alone tale. I found it an absorbing read, and a good one to return to in the evenings by the fire. It seemed to be a coincidence how the "red sickness" and the attitudes of people regarding isolation corresponded with the Covid 19 outbreak that the world is struggling with now- though plagues have been a problem since man arrived.

I really enjoyed the relationships and the characters. The atmosphere was well written, I could imagine the lands and how different each one was. I could have done with more detail in the battle scenes. I felt like they were glossed over in a page or two. For such a large book, I would have expected more from those scenes.
Last note: I could make a cookbook for each land just from the descriptions of the foods! I don’t even know what snow cream is, but I want it!!

Amazing!
Of course, nothing is really perfect, but this is good enough. Well enough. :-D
There were a couple of people I wish hadn't died. A couple of people I wish had died. But I suppose, I can expect a sequel, which I am glad to do :-D
