4.0

Loved the world building and characters. Although the plot was sometimes a bit of a slog, everyone had interesting story lines. I liked Okoa a lot and wished he had more of an active role. Xiala and Serapio’s romance was rather flat and felt like they were just smooshed together because they’re both outcasts. Individually they were stellar and had my favorite chapters.
