Okay, I had a rough start with this book, like almost DNFed at 3% rough.
But it sounds exactly up my alley so I pushed through.
I’m glad I did.
I love Kazi, and Jase, and Synové. I like the romance and the political intrigue. It’s billed as similar to six of crows, but I have to disagree. It’s not. But it is as enjoyable.
I do think the world could’ve been set up better in the beginning. I wasn’t, and still aren’t really, sure about what’s going on in the kingdoms and things, and that was one of the reasons I was so close to DNFing. But this is a solid book, and I’m looking forward to getting stuck into the second one!
