72% through what may be the most depressing book I've ever read. It's compelling - I want to finish it - but it cuts a bit too close. And it's very long.

I sometimes have trouble with how seriously high fantasy takes itself. This is probably a me problem.
I am 10 pages in and I already hate the main character (of this chapter? The whole book? Unsure). Hopefully they have a redemption arc.
Someone recommended this to me (I can't remember who - maybe through work?) and it was discounted on the Kobo store so I bought it. Let's see what it's like.

This was great, but also awful. You know those books where something traumatic happens, but there's closure, so you figure you're near the end, but then you realise you still have a third of the book to go? Yeah that.

This was mainly a good fun romp (although some unpleasant things do happen, warning).
Keen for the next instalment!
Already read a lot of this chapter by chapter through JB's Patreon, but it'll be good to read it as a proper book now.

I quite enjoyed this in the end; despite my earlier comment about being parochially set in Melbourne. It's a little depressing, essentially being a tale of slow apocalypse, but weirdly uplifting as well.
