A very satisfying arc for the world building. The devil's island is very different from things that came before. And the relationship angst and conclusion is very satisfying.

Honestly, this one was so close to being a five star read if something towards the end hadn’t pissed me off so much (not a spoiler, I’m just odd and I’m sure this thing would be irrelevant to everyone else). Keris absolutely carried this book, I adored him but I wish I had liked Zarrah’s character more. I actually think my favourite part of this was the siblingship between Lara and Keris because it was so sweet to see them come together again and also bicker like siblings do.
These poor characters truly never catch a break and I felt like we just went from one moment of panic and pain to the next but I did thoroughly enjoy it. There were so many emotional moments and parts that had my heart racing and I’m just so glad I decided to continue with this series.
Amount of spice:🔥🔥
Explicitness: 🌶️🌶️🌶️

The political intrigue is top tier. So much of it but it all makes sense and is well-written. The ending was perfect. And the pacing kept up well.
Moderate: Injury/Injury detail, War, Death, Violence, and Cannibalism
Minor: Child death
