I’m so glad I ended up liking this a lot! The first half was a little slow, and I didn’t start vibing with Aelis until a while into the book. But once we met Tun and started getting into Necromancy stuff, I was hooked. Will definitely be continuing in the series.

clarabooksit's review against another edition
It didn’t draw me in. The world-building is too slim. It felt very episodic in a way that didn’t flow for me and I didn’t like the main character or how she seemed to accomplish everything (accept making people like her but she’s not trying to do that) despite it being her first job ever. It felt a little too easy.
