Disclaimer, one you'd see on multiple posts As I struggled to decide which book series to cover overviews for, it dawned to me that I'd never get started at this rate. It became clear to me that, it's rather unlikely for me to use this blog as my "main" reviewing spot since I have Goodreads for that, and chances of someone miraculously stumbling across this blog out of the countless ones out there, is just rather slim, therefore, I'd put up links to my GR reviews (in English,) and this post would be in Chinese for people who are curious about the series but either aren't comfortable with or just don't prefer reading in English. Please also note that, sometimes I don't have time to write actual reviews, HOWEVER, I do always put down thoughts when I document my reading status updates, so for GR desktop users, remember to scroll down if it appears to contain little, it'd be under the quotes I liked from that book (when applicable lol;) for mobile app users, remember to switch to "Reading Activity," which would not be the default as "Review" is.

Goodreads Choice Award：第一入圍Fantasy和Debut Novel！

恭喜這部成為我網誌重新啟用後，第二部「沒看」卻還發網誌的作品😂 還促使我發出另一篇原本累積在草稿的網誌😝 原先是真的有打算看；同世界觀的新書2024年2月上市，當時就規劃同年要把這部解決、甚至約好了buddy-read對象，我連這篇網誌下面封面都整理完、文字都寫好了，結果在作最後確認的時候注意到，作者的官網上面除了第2.5集，真的還有一本第3本，為了這件事情還和網友討論了一下，和小編鬼打牆了一番，但最後證明真的還會有一本，便確定了明年才會看xDDDDD。後來覺得不發白不發，等實際看了，網誌發佈的年份會再做調整囉！

The actual review is, as usual, WIP, but like I said above, getting the post out there first.

Disclaimer, one you'd see on multiple posts The following section, basically a gallery of editions around the world with different book cover art, is largely inspired by treatments of fellow blogger Amethyst, who unfortunately hasn't done those types of blog posts for a while. Please DO NOT mistaken the following to be all existing editions; I'm only including completed sets with matching designs. All clickable images are linked to respective editions on GR; people, shelving correct editions ain't that hard. Highly recommend accurate shelving. =D

以下涵蓋6款，記得看全文以觀賞喔 >:3
另外，其實還有另一套獨特封面的版本（伊朗），
但是作者官網上授權的語言並沒有列出，所以就先不放了。

British English | 英式英文

由現居英國的台灣裔繪師Jason Chuang繪製^{[繪師官網]}，封面就真的感覺得出來不是打YA市場（有種優雅感？），但我真的沒想到會是台灣人w 喔然後，題外話，作者是馬來西亞出生，但這系列卻沒有在馬來西亞賣？🙄️ 所以擺放順序我有糾結一下，以市場大小來說美國還是比較大，但作者的介紹寫有去英國（和法國）唸書，後現居香港，所以就優先放英國的啦～

American English | 美式英文

由中国裔繪師Kuri Huang繪製^{[繪師作品集]}，很美www 繪師構圖range頗廣，近期雖然接了不少亞洲風的作品，但其實我沒有認出來是同一位負責的（還認成別人😅）很厲害👍

繁體中文 （台灣） | Traditional Chinese (Taiwan)

封面與眾不同👍 這種最棒，不像某些國家愛自己出又幾乎跟原版一模一樣，到底用意在哪xDDD 由台灣繪師麻繩繪製^{[繪師Facebook][繪師Instagram]}，可參考看看無標題文字之原圖^{[繪師Instagram文一][二]}。真要挑骨頭大概可以說會因為風格被誤認為是輕小說或中国網路小說？但也不一定是扣分啦，吸引不同閱讀群眾也不錯～

bahasa Indonesia | Indonesian | 印尼文



slovenčina | Slovak | 斯洛伐克文

這版本使斯洛伐克國旗第一次出現在我的網誌～並不是說其他系列沒有斯洛伐克版，有些當然有，只是出現獨特封面時，剛好都是和捷克同封面、捷克又先出，就至今沒機會出現。感覺是參考英版風格。

American English | 美式英文 （Fox & Wit Exclusive）
