The Witch’s Lens

I didn't read the blurb before starting this book and for some reason I had it in my mind that it would be a cozy, it wasn't, the story plops you right in the middle of a war complete with frozen miserable trenches and the undead. The main character is rather compelling and the group she finds herself with oddly endearing. The magic system and the world is complex and it really seems like this was a promising start to a series.
