This book had an interesting premise and I don't want to say it was badly executed, it just didn't really connect with me. The story and characters might have been well written but as I said, I haven't connected to them. I can't say that I have a favourite character but maybe it could be Fyfe. Obviously, at times at it was fun and I liked how the author wasn't worried about making it too bloody or brutal. It fit well to the whole atmosphere of the story. I really like the idea of a mirroring world because travelling between worlds is one of my favourite tropes. It could be similar to one of my favourite series Shades of Magic but it still kept its uniqueness.

It was all-consuming to a hazy point and never stopped moving with action. The story was filled with plentiful movements and characters intertwined, making it whole. The introduction to a certain world through a portal and sects that fight for balance within the city in their powerful forces. Although it was dynamic with the characters and plot, there were shallow edges that needed room for improvement to take advantage of the said powers. It had plenty of twists, which became draining with the sequential aspects of it through the deceit, making it possible for a book 2. Though, quite frankly, the way it ended does not really entice me to continue with the other installation.

Very nice read. Can be read as a standalone in my opinion. Very much a character driven story, how she tries to live her life but other people intervene.
