Absolutely amazing novel. Started off a bit slow but around page 100 began to pick up quickly! The four perspectives given throughout the book were really interesting, with Ead's perspective being my favourite. Would definitely recommend! If you want to immerse yourself in a feminist, queer fantasy, this is the book for you

So great, loved the characters, loved how at one point Ead literally resurrected herself from the absolute brink of death and the first thing she did was have sex with Sabran (so real), want to read a whole book about them in 10 years time living happily ever after!!!!!
