I definitely enjoyed it. I’ve also definitely read better fantasy books. I also definitely know that fourth wing was better. However, none of that is stopping me from wanting to continue with the series and find out what happens. This author does an excellent job keeping me hooked and I did not want to stop reading the book even when I was finding it to be a little over the top with the world building. It’s definitely interesting because this is a romance writer writing sci-fi which is exactly some thing that I would like better than a sci-fi writer writing romance. But there’s barely any romance. When there is romance though it’s excellent and the smut is awesome but it’s definitely not enough for me. All that said she must be doing something right because I’m definitely going to keep reading
