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.

adventurous challenging dark mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes

I reread a friend’s detailed synopses of the previous volumes before reading this, and I still felt so confused. I think I’m starting to see how some threads tie together, but I’ve been wrong before. A lot. But it’s still so beautiful and fascinating and worth every moment of confusion.
