What an amazing book. I enjoyed the first in the series but this book was fantastic from beginning to end and honestly made the first book more amazing in retrospect. So excited for the 3rd book when it comes out, this world is so intriguing and I just want to know everything about it. It's really a story and world you can dig you teeth into and get lost in, and manages to mix fantasy and magic with scifi in a unique and compelling way. Definitely will be rereading

This book deals with a lot of dark themes and death and body horror, due to the nature of its focus on necromancy. Lots of complicated and possibly manipulative and toxic relationships
