SubZero Vol. 1
by Junepurrr
4 stars - It was really good
This volume collects chapters 1-25 of the Webtoon comic
To save her people, Princess Clove, the last remaining heir of the Cerulean Dragon clan, has agreed to marry her enemy, Prince Kyro of the Crimson Dragon Clan. Clove quickly realizes that this marriage is not going to be as straightforward as she was expecting because Prince Kyro has enemies in the palace that are determined to stop the peace treaty from continuing.
This was a beautifully illustrated and captivating story from the very beginning. Clove is a princess who is determined to save her people, even putting herself in her enemies hands while being terrified. While Clove may appear weak, she is in fact a very strong woman who is also traumatized by this 300 year old war. I like that we see her stand up for herself, even while she is terrified and expects to die. It made me like her so much more.
Kyro is the soon to be leader of the Crimson Dragon clan. He is a standoffish man who doesn’t want to be in an arranged marriage. I liked that while he is angry and abrasive, we can understand why he is that way as we learn about his past and the danger that surrounds him. There is a lot of tension between these two because they still don’t really know each other yet but are willing to go through with the marriage if it means peace. I am very interested in seeing how their marriage plays out and how they work together to take down the enemies that are trying to sabotage them.

Overall, I think this is a great start for a series and I can’t wait to read more. I am probably going to check this out on Webtoon’s just so I can find out what happens next because I don’t want to wait for volume 2.
TW: mentions of death of a parent, death of a sibling, and war
