Light and fun yet generic western fantasy. I found the world building very uninspired and the characters far too competent and gary-stu perfect. There wasn't a plot twist that wasn't telegraphed from a million miles away. And yet I want to continue simply because it was enjoyable to read and the hint that things will become a lot more interesting as the plot and the world-building expand.
