I found myself struggling to keep track of all the new characters and lore, but I think that's a combo of it just having rich world building and my own auditory comprehension issues. I loved where it led us and there are so many exciting threads to follow in the next book!!!

I had a wonderful time reading this book. I'm glad I'm easily influenced and someone convinced me to read this series. I liked Laia and Elias and their relationship. The worldbuilding was good.
