This was an enjoyable good. This book was a little darker. I felt this book was like less focused on character and plot development. There was more worldbuilding. I had difficulty falling the plot lines and characters.Â

âIt was difficult to tell them the truth when a lie would have been so much easier for them to understand.âÂ
