I’m not a big fan of high fantasy—it can often be so very over-written as to be painful to read.  This is not like that.  There is the occasional word or image that is a bit over the top—and some of the made-up nouns are a little much—but the writing is otherwise careful and beautiful.  Each vignette is self-contained, and I found myself quickly drawn in, turning pages.

Neat idea, solidly done.

Note: the author considers it science fiction, but the parts I’ve read don’t read that way to me.  That said, things may change further on.
