This is only the first part of this new overlord story so we are left at the middle of the action, it was a bit hard to get into at first because it is a very tight timeline that follows different characters throughout a couple of days so it took me some time to get used to the format, however, I really enjoyed it. I must warn people reading it for the first time that it delves in very dark themes which are there to blatantly show how perverse humans can be so it might make some people uncomfortable.

It was slower in the beginning, but then started to pick up really fast! Love this series.

4.5 stars as actual rating.
The first quarter of the book lulled much more then I’m used to for this series, but knowing what comes next it makes sense. The rest of the book was just as amazing as the previous books, though.
I do feel the need to note that those who have triggers against domestic violence and non-consent should be wary of one (maaaaybe two) scene(s) in this book. While the scene I’m thinking of is graphic, it’s resolved in a way that feels satisfactory.
