This book wasn't what I expected it to be, but that's not always a bad thing. :) But the book did fall a little flat for me by the end.
I think I should be honest, I had a hard time thinking of Esha as this ruthless assassin. Her actions don't really match her notoriety.
The world is beautiful but this book doesn't feel unique (again, not all books have to be unique).
Definitely reading the next book.

oh this was absolutely amazing! i was gripped by this story from the very first sentence.
esha was my everything. she was deadly and beautiful with enough of a soft heart to really draw you in and keep you there. im a sucker for a tortured and morally ambiguous mc thought so that was no surprise.
kulan faltered sometimes but his character development was superb. i’m glad he’s able to make his own life decisions now. i hope he keeps making the right decisions and stay true to his choice of sticking by esha. they deserve each other.
4.5 stars from me (:
