- I adore Amal El-Mohtar’s writing. Her prose is poetic and all encompassing, able to build a lush world in under 200 pages.
- This little story is compact but still quite forceful. I found myself drawn in quickly, even these days when concentrating on reading is hard for me.
- Not only is the world of the story great, but so are our main characters. I loved Esther and Ysabel’s complicated sisterhood.

- It’s tough to review the fourth book in a series without giving away too many spoilers, so let’s just say this. If you are a romantasy lover, especially if you like a bit of a darker slant but not toooo dark, you must get into this series.
- This book is roughly the middle of the series, so the characters are dealing with the fallout of the revelations at the end of book three and getting set up for bigger showdowns to come.
- The stakes are higher, the secrets are bigger, and the spice is spicier.
