No, I suppose the floating Battlespire convent for creating an elite guard of Emperial battlemages is perfectly down to earth.
How about that floating moon with an entire ministry stationed within for holding criminals?
But a floating city? That's faaaaaar out there, isn't it?
I'd call that owned.
Also, it's kind of odd. We mentioned it inthe other threads about the books, but if you read Keyes' Kingdoms of Thorn and Bone, a lot of things are described as ancient evils in the blurbs and early on, but as the story goes and the reader and characters learn more you find out they're not.
Spoiler Like how the titular Briar King was actually not evil, just a force of nature to cancel out the Sedos magic.
so it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume that he will do the same with these.
But no, he's not MK so we'll just assume he can't write any depth at all without reading the book to validate the opinion. That seems perfectly logical /sarcasm
