Leif trains as a fighter while planning to kill Hob in response to his father’s death.
Hob controls Midgard, while crowds gather to watch and bet on fights in the arenas.
Humans created djinnis for battle; the djinnis rebelled and came to control humans in Midgard.
Consider whether a reader is comfortable with a story centred on fighting arenas, a threatening ruler and revenge. The book’s emotional effect may be heightened by scenes designed to make Leif’s discomfort felt.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: some draft conclusions still depend on unresolved evidence.
