Oh look, yet another wildly popular book that I didn’t enjoy. Baa. Not to say it was all terrible. There were some things I liked: namely, Father/Samson and the Wildfolk. I thought the magic/lore side of the story was really cool, and I enjoyed those parts. However, I wasn’t a huge fan of Abitha’s parts. Or Abitha’s character.
