Just finished the book and it was amazing.

I expected some new developments at the tournament,

but nothing like the breakneck pace at which the story develops.

Will wrote on his blog that he took some inspiration from Naruto.

I watched that series many years ago and I believe I recognized

some small parts of that. I really hope Cradle isn’t going to

drift off into endless boring filler episodes like Naruto did.

But anyway, the amount of open questions at the end is staggering.

Some of them introduced only in the last pages.

I Can’t wait for the next book.

Since when did Will apprentice to Aleron Kong,

Monarch on the Path of the Cliffhanger?

PS: Travis Baldress did an excellent job as well.

I am really enjoying his performance.
