I’m honestly speechless. This was one of the most elaborate, sweeping, and epic books I have ever read. 
I was hoping for a little bit more fantasy elements, but with how amazing this book was I honestly didn’t mind at all. 
This book has it all: politics, complex characters, character growth, sapphic romance, mystery, inspiration, beautiful action sequences, and plot twists.
