I honestly don't want to spoil anything at this point. Just, beautiful art, gripping plot, intriguing characters - I can't wait to see what happens next!

PS. It's a very gorey, bloody story, full of pretty much all the worst things people can do to each other. So. Uhm. Keep that in mind if you pick this series up.

The Talk Stories destroyed me, let's be honest. And honestly Tuya makes me so angry I can't concentrate on anything else, the most annoying character. Loved the Wolf Queen and the mask armor? Amazing art

i appreciated the breathing room in the first portion of the vol, as we got to know the characters backgrounds more and reminders of key players on the political side of the game. that being said it did drag a little for my tastes, but latter parts more than made up for it. tuya my darling….. get it together

Look I couldn’t tell you a single thing about this plot or story. It just goes over my head, but that being said I really like the characters.
