Oh I liked this one even better than the first book, I think. Yeah, some of the themes and ideas are a bit heavy handed, but I didn't really find that I minded that. We get to see more of the Fae world, and some of the world details that were a little fuzzy in the first book get expanded on this book.

Of course, we get more of Wyatt and Emyr, who are my favorite. I just really loved their chemistry in both books, and their bond gets even stronger in this book. Briar also comes into her own, realizing that she can be someone besides the helped. There were some excellent character arcs throughout this one, and I can't wait to see what Edgmon does next.

Shooootttt I loved this. I listened to it on audio, and the narrator was everything. The first in the series is H.G. Edgmon's debut, and is understandably a tad rough around the edges, but THIS IS A MASTERPIECE. The rep, the characters, even the twists and turns, I was hooked. Also the humor is just peak.

okay go off kings (or I guess not, since "kingdom" isn't really the right word for Asalin in these books.) truly Edgmon took these books and created such an expansive, beautiful, interesting fantasy concept. literally never reading fantasy that doesn't take structural inequity into account again this is so much better.
