“I will stay by your side until the fire in the sun grows cold and the light in the moon is no more. Until time blots out the stars."

Elizabeth Lim’s storytelling will never not have me in awe. Beautiful settings, the magic and romance are all just gorgeous. While I enjoyed the high stakes of this book a lot, I just didn’t enjoy it as much as Spin the Dawn or Six Crimson Cranes (which I LOVED the references to in this one).
There was a scene towards the end that had me crying in the bath so theres that.
TWs: War themes, detailed depiction of violence and gore, death of family members
