An honestly well-written novel. Intrinsic themes of power fantasy, bloodlines and out-of-game aspects affecting in-game occurrences. One thing I truly appreciate about this novel is that the main character isn't the only important person. He's certainly powerful, but he's not the only one. If I had to give a few minor critiques, it would be the forced stagnation of development for a few core supporting characters during several main story arcs, which the writer began to fix and remedy later into the novel. It's not trope-free, but it certainly uses the tropes in a healthy way that doesn't seem 'too' invasive. Except for the shameless trio, that goes way too far in some of their chapters, but you can honestly just skip those sections if it's not your cup of tea, with no detriment to your reading experience.
