Genre: Fantasy
Rating: 3/5
A world of dragons, with some changes from human society, but largely based off of and reflecting human society. Even the conflict between the “old” religion and the “accepted” religion is unclear, and largely based off of the practice of confession and absolution. Overall, the worldbuilding felt weak, and while the characters were well-written it was difficult to pay attention to anything other than the unrealistic society.
Wits I may have, but claws I am without, and while hands are useful for writing and fine work they are no use in a battle.
