Which character perspective was your favourite and why?

I also enjoyed reading Alderman's chapters! Especially when he was doing something good for the city. I enjoyed reading those

Lord Eldus scenes were nice and all, but what really got my blood pumping was Midius Maido's scenes. He seems like such an interesting character. We should have seen more of him.

I think that the way Maido plays with people's lives makes him a bit more interesting. It seems like he makes trouble for the fun of it, and I think he's got something brewing for Darius to ruin Wilhelm's plans. I look forward to reading more about him in the rest of the series.

Demetrius was my favorite character by far, while Lord Meldorath ranked second. The monk was very intriguing and I enjoyed his bickering with Rowan. Looking forward to discover his powers and skills!

After the first book, I instantly like Rowan and his knacks. Though he acts like a juvenile, he is quite capable and intelligent. His boldness and mischief, too. Who would go around nickname someone they have just meet for 5 minutes ?

I second that Rowan is damn cute and charming. If a movie is ever made on this book, no doubt Rowan is going to be my favorite

I liked Lord Eldus Alderman the most. He was the most sincere character. I feel that Galen's true character is yet to be expressed fully.

[JB3]

I liked Galen's the best although for the purported main character he did not seem to get a great deal of screen time so to speak. What I did not like however was the fact that the the perspectives kept changing between first and third person which I found to be very annoying.

I agree. Alderman's perspective was different and interesting. I would have loved it if he wouldn't have died so soon. There was still a lot yet to be uncovered by Alderman about Lord Orlin and Lord Meldorath. I especially enjoyed how he had great ambition for his people, especially for the children.

Not very original, I know, but I liked Galen's perspective. I think that his point of view was the most important because he was the outsider in Voulhire, so he provided objectivity.

[deborahveader]

Galen was by far my favorite character. I would have loved it if the story had focused on him and nothing else. He is so innocent and humble. As the reader, you are genuinely glad for his good fortune. I am hoping the next books focus on him more, since he is the main character of the book and by far the most likable.

[Kazak]

I liked Galen's perspective more because it was more immersive, it being first person after all. Another reason I liked it was that I just felt more at ease, more connected to the story, or at least his part of the story, when I was in his point of view.

[Abi_kanda]

Rowan was my favourite character. I liked how funny and easy going he was, and not boring like Demetrius(no offence). Plus, he was skilled and from the descriptions, I can tell he is cute. I could rant forever about him.

[Wordlessly]

King Wilhelm's character was what I was looking forward to most in the book. He seems like a good king and it is interesting to see how he manages trouble and unrest within his nation while surrounded by evil. Rowan's perspective is a close second as he seems quite layered.

[Prudence Emillian]

I felt connected to Galen Bray. Even though his naive nature was a bit questionable, I felt like his kindness and generosity touched me. The traits of Galen's character resonated with me.

[joynob24365]

I liked Galen's perspective better. He is new to Voulhire and he describes more what he sees. And I get confused with the other characters' perspectives.

[Anusha Thatavarthi]

I find Galen's view interesting. Because he is as new to Voulhire as we- the readers are. His innocence was refreshing during all the cunning plots in the book. I was also interested by Rowan's character and we can see him only through Galen's view.
