I have a lot of mixed feelings.
I was really excited to read this book ans there were a lot of things I really liked about it. The premise was so unique and there were aspects of the magic system that I liked. The writing was dynamic and I would totally read stories but this author in the future.
However, like others have said, this story was very confusing. The perspectives and plot were sometimes difficult to follow and I’m still not 100 percent sure I knew everything that happened. The writing, while nice, was sometimes confusing. Certain elements of the plot seemed like they needed fleshed out more. The whole “wolf” thing was a bit odd and again I felt like the immortal thing needed more explanation.
With all that being said, I still enjoyed it, but there were so many elements I had trouble with. I’d recommend this book for someone interested in a standalone novel that is gruesome, mysterious, and unique.
