This was a really solid debut book!! The world building was gorgeous, and the politics were interesting. Loved the character dynamics, and especially loved how strong telium was. I really appreciated that she was still flawed though, despite being super powerful, and that you can see she still has places to grow in to the character she hopefully will become.
That fricking ending though I stg, around 3/4 of the way I was like hmmmm smt fishy is going on and OH MY LORD DID IT FISH!!! I called one of the plot twists but not the others and ahhh.
Very much looking forward to the next book, well done Maddy x
