I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this book. I really liked all the characters, their relationships, and their banter. I liked how Saeris and Kingfisher’s relationship developed over the course of the book. I found that the world-building wasn’t too difficult to follow because it did rely on some common things you might expect in fantasy, and also was able to find spaces to be unique at the same time. I was a bit afraid that we might get an awkward love triangle with Carrion, but was happy to have that not be the case, and for Carrion to become one of my favorite characters because of his snark. Some aspects were predictable, but I was still able to enjoy the book.
