5.0

This book is initially difficult to get into, but the second the plot really starts to kick off you’ll read through it at rapid pace. this book felt like a hearty meal of interesting characters and motives, changing relationships and interesting world building.

It drops you into a fully formed world with already developing and shifting characters, which can make it initially challenging to find your footing, but it makes the world all the more compelling. Excited to read the following books!
