A breath of fresh air - good characters, interesting (and different) magic, and a very interesting world. Translation quality is solid and updates are reliable - what more can you want?
I agree with you as far as I have read up to. I have read the first 20 chapters so far and enjoyed it quit a bit. Yes, there is not a lot of action in the first 25 chapters, but there is a good amount of character and story building in the first 20 chapters.
