Buen principio de saga, buena mezcla de fantasía y chungo con un personaje muy ambiguo como es Elinor y unos personajes femeninos muyyyy interesantes.
Qué ganas de seguir 👀

Primer llibre de la saga Blackwater, és bàsicament una presentació de la situació, però és molt interessant i atrapa des de les primeres pàgines!
