caitcoy's review against another edition
Might come back to this later but leaving this here so I can remember my initial thoughts.
A lot of friends have really loved this one but it's currently making me not want to read so it might be a case of not being for me. I actively dislike the MMC Talemir, who's represented as this good looking warrior but is also a complete ass and I just hate it. The FMC also feels like the standard stabby MC trope that I get kind of annoyed with in romantasy. And it jumps so quickly into the spicy scenes and constant horny thoughts and man, just not in the mood for this. I guess it's making me realize I want slow burn so that's something anyway.

It was okay, but I didn't love the writing style.
