oh, gideon... i will say this was a super slow read for be, but the last quarter-ish really had me locked in! lotssss of world building, characters that you fall in love with or love to despise, a confusing yet intense plot, lots of magic and swordfighting and amazing dark fantasy vibes. if it weren't for the learning curve i had to go through to understand wtf was going on in this book, it would be a solid 4.5/5!! i am fully obsessed with harrow as a character and will definitely be proceeding with Harrow the Ninth shortly:):)
