The beginning was a little hard to get into though. There were so many big words, I thought I was reading another language π¬. But I was able to get over that very quickly!
~~~
There are 6 main characters and you get all of their POVs β₯οΈ. It feels a little intimidating at first but it's easy to keep track of them because they're all very different personalities. I definitely have favorites and hate some others. Also the character arts π₯Ίβ₯οΈ I LOVED that touch! When I was done with the book though, my brain was FRIED fried π ... There are just SO many questions and the ending was a little cliche-ish out there - like it came out of a Marvel movie π€.
~~~
Overall though, this was a 5β read for me. The finishing touch was thanks to Blake's amazing diversity in characters and also for including Islamic Philosophy from the past and bringing some light to the lost knowledge of the Islamic Golden Ages. (Lost as is, the history that the West happily rewrote πππ).
Anyway, I THINK EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ THIS.
