This was an absolutely incredible story. Tomi Adeyemi put me through an emotional rollarcoaster. The worldbuilding and descriptions of the places the characters visited was so masterfully done! The magic system was incredible and I absolutely loved that Tomi did not give all the details away in a info dump but rather gave more and more info as the story progressed. But for me the characters were the best part. I had such visceral reactions throughout the story. I flip flopped between loving and hating the MC's. The villains were so well written. The hero's fell and stumbled along the way. Everything about this book just made me feel something. Absolutely recommend and so excited for the next book.
