It’s a very solid novel, one of my favorites at the moment, and I think the author has done a great job improving on his writing. Compared to his other novel this one seems to have a more in depth world building and the power system is pretty incredible. My only complaints with this novel so far are: - Main character is extremely cunning, but many times his approach to fights or problems is just one of pure strenght with little strategy, which makes sense against equally powerful or weaker enemies, but he brute forces things even when against enemies or odds he shouldn’t be able to overcome with just power. - I believe there could be a bit more variation in the characters fighting styles and temperaments, most of Cain rivals so far just face him head on. - There are, if I’m not mistaken 6 races in aether, but we have barely seen any character that isn’t a juman be portrayed, not really something that is bad, but I’m curious to know a bit more about the other races.
