It was definitely a wild ride! There was a lot to set up for this fantasy novel so it took me a minute to get into it. But I did get into it eventually! When I did, I was mostly interested in the two main characters and their love story. But that’s not actually what the majority of the book is about 😆. I wish it was! There’s no spice, but they’re together in the fight to get to the top and be in power which was interesting to follow. I probably won’t keep going in the series but I did enjoy the story and would recommend for those that love fantasy.
