Evidemment la fin ne dupe pas le vieux loup de mer de fantasy que je suis, et tant que l'on a pas vu et confirmé en détail la mort d'Inan, je reste persuadée de le retrouver dans le prochain livre.
Dans l'ensemble, je suis heureuse d'avoir lu cet ouvrage et le recommande autour de moi.

The in depth description and detailing of the magic system and how this is inspired by West African mythology has made me want to go and read more material relating to it as well! I feel it is difficult to describe a magic system with just the right amount of detail but Adeyemi nails this beautifully.
However, I feel there were a couple of typical standard sort of romance tropes that honestly, this book just did not need. While watching romance blossom is nice, I don't feel it added any extra level of depth to the storytelling and the story would still have been just as beautiful without. As I didn't dislike the romance, this story still gets 5 stars in my book and I am looking forward to reading the sequel when I have fully processed the book I just finished reading.
