Veldig solid 4-stjernes bok. Med da meine eg at eg ikkje har så mykje negativt å sei om den... men eg har heller ikkje noko spesielt positivt å sei. Trur ikkje eg kjem te å lesa oppfølgjaren

To me, this was absolute, utter perfection.
From the beginning til right trough the end it was perfect. I felt such a strong connection to Tisana and getting some passages in dual POV just made it the better.

First, this book had some of the worst world-building I’ve come across since the Divergent series. I had no idea what the continent was like bc there was no map. And if this was a good book, I would not need a map, because I would understand the lands. I know what you’re thinking- that’s not always necessary for the first book! But no, wars and tension between areas was a main conflict within the novel. I didn’t understand if Ara belong to the Orders? Were the Orders ruled over or their own entity? Where was her homeland? How was Threll her homeland? I thought she was brought there by slavers (not a spoiler it’s the first chapter of the book).
It's one of the most convoluted fantasies I’ve ever read. And the characters each told you each other’s traits instead of the author actually showing them.
Then there was no clear understanding of the magic system. Who has it? Who doesn’t? Why? Why not? How do you know when your magic is spent and how long does it take to recover? I should not end the book being unable to tell you how the world works in any way. I don’t even know how large it is or how many countries/regions/territories there are??
Who let this horrible imitation of Aelin Ashryver Galanthnius be published?
I will NOT be finishing this series. I just finished this book and can barely tell you what happened.
