The Descent of the Drowned by Ana Lal Din

3.0

The cover dragged me into this one, and the synopsis definitely kept me intrigued - something I was very excited for - and it did NOT disappoint. I have not read anything like this book before (and if I have I've forgotten). The Descent of the Drowned follows the POV's of two main characters - Roma, lower caste that serves patrons, and Leviathan, the Firawn's son with a lot of power and definitely a lot of emotional damage.

When these polar opposites cross paths it creates an interesting combination and relationship - I need to know how this develops moving forward. I really loved the characters and the plot as well. A fast-paced and intense read that I really enjoyed.

I can't wait to read the next book and see what's to come in the future.
