I'd avoided this series because of the fame around it. I expected something really edgy, with the tone of "this isn't your grandad's fantasy. This is dark and gritty!" But...it's not. It's not edgy at all. It is dark, but not for the sole sake of being dark. It puts imperfect people is less than imperfect situations and they react. In short: great character work.

"Strange how she never stopped hoping."

And just like that, I like Ferro now.

"Ferro did not like it..." Big freaking surprise. She wouldn't like food if she were starving to death.
