Oh what a fun magic system this book has! I was immediately interested in this book solely off of the magic system and can’t go wrong by starting out in a trial of sorts. I’m a sucker for a headstrong FMC and Wren didn’t disappoint. I loved the adventure and politics and mysteries unraveled. The start of the book was a bit slow and gave wayyyy too much information too fast but once you get in it’s great.

The tension between Wren and Julian omg, I love when authors don’t give you a couple right away and they’ve got some dirt between them. From trying to kill each other to working together to forbidden love and a betrayal! My favorite.

I can’t wait to see what Wren, Julian and Leo do next!
