To tell people to hang in there. Books 1-3 felt like a lot of world building and the pace seems a little slower, but It’s a harsh world for an unsouled! I can definitely say I grew frustrated with Lindon a lot early in the saga, wowever, without that world building I don’t think that books 4-11 would have been nearly as good. So hang in there! You can’t even imagine the things Lindon will get up to 🙂
