There were a lot of twists in this. And I liked how sometimes one character’s perspective was purposely not gone back to regularly to keep the suspense for the reader about how all things were progressing.
Chakraborty conveyed the complexity of emotions and relationships between people very well as things progressed in this book. And I’m very interested to see how things continue into the third book.

Thank you, Chakraborty, for keeping me on my toes throughout this book and introducing me to some truly captivating mythology. I’m not done with the series yet, but I can already tell how heartbroken I’ll be to leave the breathtaking world of Daevabad.
