This is a re-read and I loved it just as much as I did the first time. Now that I know the twists and reveals, I can spot hints of them in the lead-up which would seem completely innocuous to first time readers.
This installment is largely focused on the travel portion of their quest which I personally enjoyed but I can understand how some readers wouldn’t enjoy that. Gen is such a delightful little scamp and a lot of major players in future books are laid out in this one. I’m so excited to start the second book again.
