I'm quickly finding Schwab to be an author I enjoy reading. After finishing the Villious duology and seeing the blurb for this book in Vicious, I decided I had to read this one and I'm glad I did. Kell and Lila are as compelling as the mystery of the black stone. I'm quite interested in reading the rest of the trilogy.
Graphic: Death, Grief, Violence, Blood, and Torture
Moderate: Slavery, Sexual harassment, Sexual assault, Classism, and Cursing
