The worldbuilding feels natural and textured. The characters feel real and complex. The story is engaging emotionally and in terms of action, while allowing for the reader to allow down and process. The foreshadowing is excellent, and even I "called" the ending, I was still surprised and satisfied, like I solved a puzzle instead of predicting a story. 

I am so in love with the protagonists. I'm very excited for the second in this duology.
