While it took a few chapters to get going and at first I wasn't sure, when I got to this line I knew I was reading the right book.
But that was FAR from the biggest reveal in this book that is practically constructed out of galaxy brained twists.
There are quite a a few narrative discontinuities, which can be pretty disorienting. I imagine that's the intended effect but it definitely made it a trickier read.
Part of me hoped it would spend more time developing the magic system itself rather than escalating to blow my mind several times. If anyone has recommendations for “Magic as a programming language” books, please share because I'm a big nerd.
All is forgiven though, after I managed to hold on through the rest of that insane rollercoaster ride.
