this was great! really impressed with the prose, particularly as i wasn't sure what to expect from a novel tied to a tv franchise. the writing is compelling and the character work with kyoshi is fantastic. this novel delivers on the emotional front and engages meaningfully with ethics, particularly in the realm of justice and corruption. darker and more mature in tone than most other entries into the canon, which i really appreciate. also absolutely love the romantic relationship at the core of this novel. bi rights, baby
