I enjoyed this one! It reminded me of Divine Rivals mixed with The London Seance Society. Loved the narrators, as they both made it really easy to just continue on. There was a lot of war, and definitely more detailed than Divine Rivals. I really liked that there was a “bad guy” as it really gave me someone to actively root against. That being said, it kind of lost me towards the end. The last two sentences intrigued me though! Still recommend if you liked the above mentioned books and war doesn’t bother you!
