Absolutely charming!!!!!! Farli was so fun to read about, she’s been a great background character throughout the series and it was nice to read her book!
Mardok was so dreamy?! It was cool to see a male outsider perspective to the world.
There was a lot of fun world building in this one, it was a cool way to get questions answered. This was a great entry in the series, and definitely one of my favorites so far!!

I really enjoyed this book. I loved Farli and Mardok, even though Mardok at times frustrated me with his insistence that Farli leave with him, leaving her family and friends behind. But the ending all but makes up for that.
I understand his reasonings for not wanting to stay on the Ice Planet at first, due to his past in the military, but I also felt he was asking too much from Farli who has a family, friends, and a pet that she would've been leaving behind with the huge possiblity that she would never see them again if she chose to leave with him. I felt he was putting undue pressure and guilt on her to choose to leave with him the entire time when he wasn't even thinking about the possibility of staying on the planet with her and the tribe until close to the end. I'm just glad that they eventually came to the best choice for them and that he came to understand she also has plenty of reasons to want to stay instead of leaving.
The ending also has a hint of what's to come in the next book/books. And I'm not sure if I'll end up enjoying the next book or not.
Bek's choice in the end is not necessarily the best choice and I feel he's got some major consequences coming for him in the next book. But I'm also excited to read it to see how I end up liking it. I've had mixed feelings on Bek the entire series, leaning mostly towards disliking him as a character. So I'm anticipating not enjoying the next book as much as the previous ones. But I'm excited to see if I'm right or if I'll be pleasantly surprised.
