2.5, but I'll round up for style. So edgy yet unremarkable. Like... ridiculously edgy. Like I won't have to shave for a couple months with the razor sharp edges flying out of this book. The author really laid the evil on thick with Jorg. He's an unabashed murderer, liar, racist, sexist, and rapist all stemming from being horribly traumatized in his youth. I wouldn't even call him an antihero, he's just a blatant villain but one you ever so slightly root for. I would have rooted for him more if his personality had a few more layers and if his plot armor wasn't so bluntly obvious that it had me repeatedly saying "seriously, come on..." Insurmountable odds? JORG STAYS ALIVE. Ungodly powerful necromancers? JORG WINS FROM A FLUKE, and takes them out in the span of a sentence or two. People who have no reason to side with him and could easily kill him to be rid of him and the trouble he causes? HE GETS A SECOND CHANCE. This ridiculous plot armor starts making the action-y scenes fall flat on their face with little effect.
I had to continuously wrangle my attention back to the book through quite a few parts. The plot and worldbuilding redeemed it enough to keep me interested, has me wondering where it will go, and hoping the sequels are better.
