Alex (Galaxy) is yet another example of Bardugo’s crafted flawed protagonist; a former high school drop out drug addict who is provided a chance to join Lethe, secret society at Yale. Their purpose is the monitor the other magical secret societies but when a girl turns up dead, Alex is convinced something is off.
It is unapologetically dark and graphic at times. A blend of horror & dark adult fantasy.
The time line was a bit confusing when listening via audiobook but I otherwise really enjoyed this and cannot wait for the sequel Hell Bent 😈
