It has taken me too long to get this book off of my TBR and into my hands. I really enjoyed the world building and the unwavering bonds between the characters. There was so much to like about Deka, mostly her development from an ashamed girl that was absolutely terrified of what she was capable of to a fierce, determined leader that found so much strength in who she was and from those around her.

I think the last half was a bit unevenly paced, as certain plot points moved at odd speeds or the sequencing felt off. Still, I will definitely continue this series to see what comes next.
