This is the best series I think Mas has made in her universe that I’ve read so far. The main character is gritty and intriguing and I couldn’t keep away from the book for long.

A great first book to kick off a series, very engaging from the start. The love triangle had so much potential, but I feel like it wasn’t explored enough, though I suppose there’s still plenty of time in the series left to flesh it out. If someone only wants to read this book for the romance, they’d be disappointed, since not much happens aside from like two scenes with just a kiss. Overall, this book does a great job setting up a really dynamic and interesting plot web for the next few books to explore. I’m already starting the next one!

I liked this book! It was entertaining & really easy to read. I will say that I never really expected Nehemiah to have anything to do with the murders & I suspected it was Cain the entire time. I’m not sure if that aspect was supposed to be a plot twist but if so, it was a little disappointing that it was that obvious. Regardless, I enjoyed this book!

Some of the romantic and playful interests are a bit juvenile and the treatment of royalty is not entirely expected, but the relationships formed and the adventure is carefully placed in short chapters, making much of it easily digestible.

The first book I read in the TOG series. So much fun and always such loveable characters. I'm so excited to see where this story goes.
