I loved this one so much. Adam/Rig is truly selfless in his wish to help Gloam which is so true to him - we first see it with Aury. His motivation made perfect sense to me.
I felt like sometimes things came to Adam too easily but on the other hand I also feel like he was actually good at being out in the wastes and just never got the chance to use the skills he definitely developed living in a raider camp.
This is truly, so far, my fav book in the series.

This book was nothing like what I was expecting. It really did take some unexpected turns. It was intriguing to see a truly monstrous part of The Wastes. And Collector Mary is an even more terrible character than we were lead to believe she was in the previous book. Rig's romance with Gloam is nothing like the other books and that's what made it such a great read. I was smitten with the both of them from the first time Gloam offered to keep Rig warm. I'm cannot wait to learn more about Moth in the next book! Plus, it is Charlie's book and I am totally ready to see him more on page!
