From the first phase of this book it intrigued me and gasped my attention. In all honesty if any book mentions a motley crew, I am hooked. This book gives me Six of crows and Crooked kingdom vibes in the best way. I think. the first thing that drew me to this book had to be the amazing artwork of the cover. It is fancy and whimsy incarnate. I think, although the cover is amazing, the adventure of locating the Dragons head and uncovering all the secrets this world that the author has created will be what keeps me reading late into the night.
