Anyone who truly loathes love triangles won’t enjoy this but I’m not terribly put off by it. The plot of gods and politics was so interesting that I didn’t really have time to focus on the Lore-Gabe-Bastian dynamics and I have so many theories about what could happen in the second book. I just couldn’t bring myself to give this full five star status because I don’t think Lore really grew as a person. Sure she adapted to her surroundings but by the end when she was asserting that she was selfish, I didn’t fully buy it. She’s selfish at times and selfless in others. Bastian had the most interesting growth and I’m excited to see how they develop in the second book.
