_forestofpages's review against another edition

The main character, Damen becomes enslaved sexually to the love interest, Prince Laurent who, in the first few chapters, drugs Damen and nearly has him publicly sexually violated. He would have succeded if Damen didnt manage to beat the other guy. And this is THE ROMANCE I am supposed to root for?? 

To say I am not interested in watching these two people fall in love is a massive understatement.

God I wish I had read the content warnings for this.
And yet, even with all of that, this managed to be a very boring 300 pages. If I wasn’t stuck at home with Covid, I probably would have DNF’d this.

toni_mahony's review against another edition

3.5

the world and its interhuman relationships are very brutal and perverse which can be quite gruesome if you are not ready for it.
otherwise, i got immersed in the story although it is noticeable that this book is primarily world building and is setting the mood for the other two books. therefore, i recommend reading at least the first two books to get a grasp of the plot of the series.
