Orphaned by the Border Wars, Alina Starkov is taken from obscurity and her only friend, Mal, to become the protegé of the mysterious Darkling, who trains her to join the magical elite in the belief that she is the Sun Summoner, who can destroy the monsters of the Fold.
A very enjoyable book. Sometimes a bit difficult to get through as the first person limited POV can leave supporting characters feeling a bit hollow.
Very easy to read, a little childish at times, but enjoyable nonetheless
