One thing I did not love is that every Cêpan we meet is either already dead or dead soon after we meet them. I wish it wasn’t so obvious that it’s only happening to further the plot. It makes the story feel more written and less believable. I also wasn’t a fan of the font changes as we moved perspectives between John and Marina. There’s so many better ways to differentiate perspective and font changes were just messy and disorienting, reminded me of year 5 english homework.
Overall I think this was a good book. I had a great time reading it and although it’s not a new favorite I’m having a good time with this series so far. Every time I think I have a favorite character though they end up dead so there’s that. 4 stars.
