A teacher recommended me read this book, I felt heard in a way.

Stephen King really shines when it comes to the human relationships and the depth of the main characters. He has a great knack for building those grounded connections. However, the fantasy elements didn't quite work for me here. About 30% of the book felt a bit slow. I loved the beginning, especially before Charlie heads off to Empis, and I also really enjoyed the ending and the lead-up to it. Despite the slow parts, I still found the story enjoyable overall.

3.9/5

A very interesting and weird read as per usual when it comes to this author.

This series is a web novel; a very well written one at that. Although i’ve yet to catch up with the other avid followers, i can tell this series will go very very far. (currently on chapter 503)

a fun and healthy challenge. i approve.
