The story premise is interesting though suspending disbelief in science and physics was a little hard. I did not see that plot twist coming. The audiobook narrators are excellent and I enjoyed listening to it. I will be continuing the series when the next one comes out.

This story is a fast-paced romantasy that talks about the reality of life —in general. With its enthralling and straightforward plot, you will find yourself fascinated by the light and darkness involved in the story. The world building was cruel and dark yet the characters are lovable. It also talks about the horrors of war and death. And it was brimming of plot twists and turns that might take you on the edge of your seat. Yet, the story was full of hope and love. It was both heartwarming and heart-wrenching. This is the beginning of a beautiful and immersive series, “Mistlands”.

When all seems lost, light will always be found in the dark.

Katherine Quinn made sure that the readers will feel deep sentiments in this story. It was captivating, fun, and romantic. I have never like instant love as much but I do appreciate how the author made it so acceptable — in my opinion. This is the first time I read her stories and definitely not the last. Thank you for this enticing story!

The banter in this book is great. There is an interesting god based magic system, that you saw develop throughout the book.
