It had been a long time since I'd fallen so deeply in love with a protagonist and a fantasy story. It reminds me a bit of The Ballad of Bateson in the way it conveys emotions. I love how well-developed Vlad is as a protagonist; he has the reactions you'd expect from someone his age and the circumstances of his upbringing. He's emotional, fierce, and tender with his people.
