This book was so good! Like, stay-up-til-2am-to-finish-it GOOD. It was action-packed and adventurous, and I absolutely LOVED the FMC. Her friends were awesome too. And Morrgot. I hope there’s a little more about the magic system in the next book, but overall I thought the world building was fantastic. Docked a quarter of a star because the author kept calling the horse’s bridle a halter—as a horse person this deeply annoyed me. Google’s not that hard.
Graphic: Animal cruelty, Bullying, Death, Violence, and Injury/Injury detail
Moderate: Infidelity, Sexual content, and War

wowowowow I did not expect to get totally sucked into this. I much prefer this book to Feather by far.
The first 10% are a bit slow to start and had a lot of worldbuilding to process (not info dumping, just trying to figure out what/who everything is), but it really picks up once Fallon hears the prophecy.
Wildenstein does an amazing job of creating a vibrant, complex world with its histories and different beings. While some of the tropes are predictable, they're nonetheless enjoyable, and Wildenstein's originality in her story along with its fast pace keeps it fresh and riveting.
I am starting the next book right... now!
TWs: some violence but not too detailed
