It almost feels unfair to review this series book by book. It’s far more like each book is a chapter in a greater epic, and in Glint, we’re still just getting started.
We get a lot of lore, slowly. More questions than answers. The book is primarily about Auren’s mental journey to unravel the trauma she’s experienced and why her “safety” is anything but. Despite finding her extremely naive at the beginning of Gild, it’s clear she isn’t—and watching her slowly realise just how manipulated she’s been feels extremely cathartic.
Now I need to start Gleam, because it really just feels like I need to get to part three. I can’t imagine the cliffhangers for the next few books. I bet they’re going to wreck me. I predicted (though with doubts) the twist to this one at the end, but I have so many questions that need answering!!
