Review: Well-done intro novella -- would recommend reading before Ink

Shadow was a very short novella, clocking around 70 pages, but I felt like it served as a good intro to the Paper Gods series. Amanda Sun used the short length effectively to introduce the main characters and their life situations that drive the beginning of Ink. I would recommend reading Shadow first as it details the background situations that are only mentioned in the full novel and adds depth to some of the characters that had less page time in Ink.
