Thanks to @netgalley for the ARC of this book!

I almost DNF'd this about halfway through. I couldn't figure out where the plot was going and I was getting lost on the overly detailed descriptions of setting.

I can compare this to the same thematic thread of the Fron Blood and Ash series, as it deals with the politics of the church and state as well as the gods.

All of the main characters are morally grey and you have no idea who is good and who is bad even at the end.

But it does have some great tropes. Hot Priest. Bi-prince. Corsets. Love triangle. Star crossed lovers.

Overall, 3.5 stars out of 5. I will absolutely read the next in the series.
