The Fragile Threads of Power
by V. E. Schwab (Tor, 2023)
audiobook read by Kate Reading, Marisa Calin & Michael Kramer (Macmillan Audio, 2023)
A long book, very much focussing on the journey rather than the destination (a pit stop a third of the way through a trilogy). Schwab’s worldbuilding is fine. Her characters generally hold interest (Tes especially). Still, there’s a sense of manufactured epicness.
