Thank you to Rebecca Brodkey for the advanced copy of this book!
This was such a refreshing new fantasy read! The vibes were unlike anything I've read, combining a Peaky Blinders type gang with a Princess Mononoke-esque forest to make for such an intriguing story. Yom was such a complex FMC, and I love that we got to see how smart and talented she is, along with her battles with addiction and PTSD. Quia is such a sassy stick-in-the-mud type character, and I just loved him and the way him and Yom slowly opened up to trusting one another.
I really enjoy books that featuring meddling Gods and mythos, and this absolutely delivered on that! The war between the Gods and Titans was so intriguing, and I loved all of the twists and turns that came along with it. Also, Sassa is perfection and I would die for her.
I cannot wait to see where this series goes! Highly recommend picking it up if you're looking for a unique new fantasy read with queer rep, tons of mythology, explosive chemistry, and world ending stakes!
