It's a gripping, action-packed read that kept me hooked from start to finish. There wasn’t a single dull moment — I devoured it in no time. A brilliant sequel that completely lived up to the first book.

OOF. I exclaimed outloud a few times during this book.  RF Kuang is brilliant at mixing fantasy worlds with the darkest parts of our reality.
