This book started out very prose heavy with dense dialogue and scene setting. But. If one can persevere through that, this story is magnificent.
The descriptions of the land, it’s clothing, the culture was so rich and vibrant, it leapt off the page with such beautiful coloring and scenery…I cannot help but marvel at Ms. Gray’s work.
The mysticism and legendary inspiration is so clearly seen here…I cannot wait for the sequel.
——-
The way that the romance developed didn’t feel forced or rushed or obligatory; it felt very natural and organic. I have so many tabbies on scenes when I swooned along with the characters.
Ekon’s counting was very familiar to me (except my number is 5, his is 3). I felt very valid and seen in that moment.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for gifting me a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Receiving these materials in no way impacted my review.
