Well written

Well written and creative. I loved the setting and character’s interactions. Loved the new magical take.

Boring and Slow

Based on the description, this seemed like an interesting concept. Alas, the plot is almost non-existent, the pace is slow, and the story is boring. All of that added up to one thing: I don't care about the characters or what happens to them. I quit halfway through.

Half of the first half could have been eliminated and we'd still have all necessary background and character information. Adding dimension to the characters would have helped as well. They're too one-dimensional and predictable.
