May I begin by saying, the worldbuilding in this book is absolutely stunning!
It can be a little confusing at first, the mix between what feels like a medieval-ish setting, sprinkled with technology and evidence of a "modern" past. Reminded me a lot of The Shannara Chronicles with fewer elves and more aliens.
It took me a while to get my bearings and start to truly enjoy the story. The political drama slowly unveils and the jumps between POVs make it a slow-paced read. However, once all the pieces are in place you just can't let go.
Looking forward to seeing what the future holds for Cordelia, Carter, and the Amber Waves.
