This is one of the strongest debut novels i've ever read. Sprawling and lovely and devastating, I enjoyed this immensely.

Asha is easily one of my favourite female protagonists and Obi reminds me so much of the 10th Doctor I can't help but love him, we don't get as much of Xavior but what we did get I liked.

Plot was great but i'll admit there were some (tiny) plot holes and time travel is almost always confusing so I don't blame anyone for that.

Reminded me so much of the Broken Earth trilogy at points (which is one of the best fantasy stories to exist) and I loved every moment, cannot wait for book 2!
