The plot is a lot of walking, being horny, being angry, being horny, plans backfiring, suffering deadly injuries but surviving them, more being horny and more walking. Somewhere in there were aspects of accepting yourself, growing into your powers (and loosing them), and conflicts about religions and cultures clashing which suffered greatly under all the rest.

Reid's writing is so descriptive. It's so easy to imagine the scenes from the page. There are definitely some graphic descriptions for the more brutal and violent scenes. But it added a darkness to the overall dark atmosphere of the book.
I will say that trigger warnings should DEFINITELY be checked. And to note that ethnic cleansing/ getting rid of a religious group or group of people is a big plotline in this novel.
Highly recommend though if you enjoy darker fantasy novels!
