Evidemment la fin ne dupe pas le vieux loup de mer de fantasy que je suis, et tant que l'on a pas vu et confirmé en détail la mort d'Inan, je reste persuadée de le retrouver dans le prochain livre.
Dans l'ensemble, je suis heureuse d'avoir lu cet ouvrage et le recommande autour de moi.

However, the character development felt like a speed run. No one was fleshed out as being more than their trauma and relationships felt surface level. There’s also a lot of repetitive lines and some visual descriptions, though poetic, did lose me a bit. I hope the second book focuses more on female friendship as I really enjoyed the near last chapter hair braiding scene. Also, the only respectable man in the book is ironically the pickpocketer, every other guy sounds clinically insane at times (cough, Inan, cough).
Still overall a great book and if you pick this up just get the second while you’re at it.
TW on genocide & violent oppression. Brief body mutilation/scarring near the end which felt most impactful.
Moderate: Body horror
