SERIES DESCRIPTION
The Cradle series is the best-selling example of the Progression Fantasy
subgenre, which includes works of fantasy where the primary plot
revolves around a character growing more powerful in their use of magic.
Cradle is high-stakes, fast-paced, and action-focused, with minimal time
dedicated to world-building, and as such the books are lean and focused.
The series is often compared to anime, with fans using phrases like
"anime in book form" or "fantasy novels meet Dragon Ball Z," emphasizing
the story's specialty of loud and colorful super-powered battles.
