Overall I enjoyed this story a lot. I enjoyed the characters and loved seeing a fantasy romance portraying a polyam relationship. I did find the writing lacking in some areas and I generally prefer a harder magic system.

Complicated
This book was PHENOMENAL & I don’t say that lightly. I found the writing addictive, the world building seem-less & the action scenes cinematic.
This is a dark epic fantasy with beautiful queer representation, dangerous animal friends with their own personalities & delightful feminine rage as a centre point.
It tackles heavy subjects with care & finesse, showing these scenes with sensitivity - they are written because it is central to the plot but not grotesquely detailed (although I would urge anyone wanting to read this book to check the content warnings before starting)
The world the author has created feels tangible.
I felt like I could completely trust her with where the story was going even when everything seemed dire - & it really gets quite desperate.
The characters feel real & their struggles weighted in truth.
I have found a new favourite series & a new auto buy author.
