The story was so good, it just took a little while to get it going. There’s quite the lull of world building information in the early to middle section that was a little dull. But the main characters are great. The unfolding of information and plot is great. I leave the first book all twisted up inside for how things may go in the second. I’m looking forward to reading it!
Graphic: Body horror, Genocide, Murder, Fire/Fire injury, and Injury/Injury detail
