carmifia's review against another edition
4.0
Ein spannendes Buch mit einem wirklich faszinierenden Weltenaufbau und Magiesystem. Das Setting und die Atmosphäre des Buches mochte ich sehr gerne und auch die Protagonisten waren sehr interessant, allerdings hoffe ich in den nächsten Teilen auf mehr Tiefe in den Charakteren. Außerdem hoffe ich, dass auch beim Magiesystem noch weiter ins Detail gegangen wird. Das Buch ist voller Geheimnisse und Wendungen und endet auch ziemlich überraschend, weshalb ich mich schon sehr auf die kommenden Teile freue.

At first I thought I'd put it down - I'm kinda just past the whole inexperienced girl forced to team up with inhumanly beautiful sinister power and finds love along the way.
However, the world was interesting and the royal rituals rather blood thirsty, and I found the magics fascinating. So, aside from that one small common trope, it actually was a pretty good book. I had forgotten it was a trilogy so I was annoyed when it ended and left a bit of hang there. I guess I'm signing up for the second book. I'm actually interested in finding out about that fourth race that's been existing on the sidelines all this time.

I wasn‘t a big fan. I liked the magic system but the pacing was a bit off and I couldn‘t quite get to the characters. The whole history part and the different spicies were a cool idea but not really worked through, in my opinion.

This novel follows two sisters in a fight to be Queen. One must die so that the other can rule. Our main character Raina throughout the novel is focused on a journey to learn about her magic so that she can eventually duel her sister. On that journey she discover parts of herself she never could have imagined.
Things I did like: 1) The sister relationship and the relationship she had with her mother (even though I wish we delved deeper into that, maybe book 2
