Well written but confusing towards the end. Also came off a bit fatphobic. There's two plus sized characters and they make it a point of mentioning their size pretty much every time they are brought up, with characters joking about being squashed and having their bones broken in their hug and stuff like that. Lost half a star for that. And the ending was vague and confusing. The writing too flowery to actually explain what the fuck was going on which left me with a sense of confusion and ruined my closure.

Thank you Net Galley and Little Tiger Group for giving me an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I thought that this was a brilliantly written sequel to Wranglestone and I definitely enjoyed this book more. I loved the development and depth of Peter and Cooper’s relationship and the plot had a lot of suspense, which made it very easy to read. Once again, they tackle the challenges within Wranglestone and help the returned. The ending of this book was also, in my opinion, the perfect ending for the duology.
