The mystery behind Anna’s magic was so intriguing , and I honestly saw nothing coming , from the family curse to Effie being a king list twin and Attis not being what he seems.
From revenge, to love/lust to betrayal this book was filled with chaos and although it was lengthy it was such a worthwhile read. I’ve never read a fantasy with such detailed magic systems, but despite their complexity it was enjoyable and not hard to follow.
The binders book extracts at the start of each chapter really added to the mystery behind their grove and was a creative edge which aided the world building. Overall, I loved this book and cannot wait for the sequel to find out where this curse takes Anna, effie and trying to protect the secret of witches in the world.
