I wasn't that impressed by it TBH. I couldn't work out exactly what author was pitching at in the tone of the book; there were bits reminiscent of Tolkein, Clark Ashton Smith and William Hope Hodgson, and the writing style was rather mannered - was he trying to write like a cross between William Morris and ER Eddison or was he trying to avoid that?
Don't get me wrong, it was readable, but nothing makes me want to look for the next instalment.
