Masterful writing. Hilarious and truly epic insults. Great storyline with twists and turns and depth and character development. Original and imaginative and dark and tragic and beautiful. Wonderful Witcher vibes. Super gory and graphic, be warned

Main character is challenging, and the book ends on a cliff hanger that was a bit predictable. Overall, not bad - writer does a good job with creating tension and fear!

This is a fantastic story of love and loss, hope and damnation. It is incredibly told through the voice of  Gabriel de León. Throughout his story you learn of his greatest triumphs as well as his greatest heartbreak. A stellar read.

How Gabe speaks of Astrid is beautiful and heartbreaking. Even though he is feeling defeated and faithless, his love for Astrid and Patience is so strong.
