Beautiful writing and I love the blending of different mythology and folklore. I loved seeing the growth of the two main characters and enjoyed the wide cast of characters and cultures. I only had one critique
I thought that the villain was not believable. He seemed like evil for the sake of evil and to show that humans can be worse than the two main characters that can be seen as monsters
Definitely recommend.
