This was a great, intense read. I enjoy this type of epic fantasy story with alternating POV, and it was fairly easy to follow the three characters. I liked that all of the storylines ultimately connected (though, at the beginning, it seemed they would not) & there were not so many supporting characters as to be overwhelming or confusing. I enjoyed the worldbuilding and I thought the writing was very descriptive.

I do wish that Dyeawan's story was a little more fleshed out, as I thought her chapters were the weakest. I think that showing more of her overcoming the physical challenges she faced would have been a great opportunity, and I hope that this is explored further in any potential sequel. I did enjoy the thought that was put into her character and I was glad to see the kind of diversity that is not typically found in this type of fantasy.
