This book differs, in a good way, from its predecessor by focusing its conflict more on the supernatural elements than the political ones. It still felt like the same.universe but we got to see so much more that was left to be discovered from the first book. I enjoyed it very much. I'd love to see a book detailing the original Dreadmount eruption and the Snow Maiden

SUCH a good prequel to Priory of the Orange Tree!! So obsessed with this and could see it all so perfectly and cinematically. Somehow even better than POTOT and that’s saying something! Queer characters, POC rep and incredible fantasy plot ❤️
