It took me a bit to get into this one but I blame that on the momentum dying from waiting so long to read this after I finished Daughter of the Moon Goddess. I really like the fast paced flow and how there is constantly action happening. I also enjoy the author’s visual descriptions, it really immerses you into the fantasy realm! Sue Lynn Tan has easily become an auto buy author. I had a feeling

Xinglin was going to end up with Wenzhi and I’m so happy they did!!

📖
I had a wonderful time with this book. I liked the pacing and I liked the plot. The characters were fun and I liked their various relationships. Though I didn't care for the  love triangle.

I wish we saw more of what the future held after the ending, but it was still a satisfying end that leaves one feeling as though everything will be how it should be with time. I enjoyed this book more than the first, it had more adventure, action, and suspense/twists which I enjoyed. It does a wonderful job showing how one can fight for what they love, deal with grief and loss, and still find happiness in the end. A wonderful read I would highly recommend.
