this was a behemoth of a book but very good. Ms Shannon's way of world building is so amazing and kept me entranced with the entire book. Yes at times it was slow & somewhat hard to get through but it was also very fucking good when it got good, so it's weird to me when people say this book wasn't interesting or the writing isn't great when it's better than some of this shit y'all have recommended me before, like this is a legit good book which normally I'm not on hype trains but this one I am. Love my girls Ead, Tané and Sabran. I would like to see more.
