This book had me hooked immediately. There are so many moving parts and teases for what is to come later but all of the information and world building never got overwhelming. I crave more of these characters, this savage vicious dungeon world and it's place in a much wider world too. Even though this story's premise and content can be very grim and dark it tempers this with a lot of humor. I found myself feeling very sad but moments later I was cackling with delight. I couldn't wait to start book 2 immediately after I finished this one!
