Another really strong story by CL Polk. It’s the first full length novel I’ve read from them, and I really enjoyed it. The world is so rich and fun to explore, but there were moments when I wished we had more background on certain aspects of the world. There’s a concept of “ether” that is extremely important to the end, but we barely get introduced to it until 2/3rds through the story.
As usual, the characters are a delight. I loved the family dynamic between Grace and Miles, and Miles’ chemistry with Tristan is off the charts. Overall, a great first entry in the series.
