Damn! or I means Glassdamn!
This is a good book.. Like a really, REALLY good!
I added it to my favorites list half way through reading it.
I had bought it right when it came out and it just stayed on my shelf until recently.
I should have read it earlier!
It reminds me of Discovery of Witches and that book is one of my absolute favorites.
There is love, a magic system that is easy to understand, war, amazing loveable characters, a mysterious murder, and so much more.
Demir, Baby, Thessa, Kissa, and Idirian are all complex characters with great stories.
I did not have a hard time reading this story. There were little to no slow points. When the story did slow the next chapter would be of a new character doing something dangerous or progressing the story in an important way.
And the ending eluding to ancient beings living amongst us, so good!
Everyone go read this book right now!
