I liked but I was left with unanswered questions. What type of supernatural bring was Faro and why was she imprisoned? Issaka was reincarnated but who was he before? It wasn’t a complete story, there wasn’t an ending, however it was a good story. Issaka’s father was a protector of the library and manuscripts and his mother and ancestors were powerful people. This is a short and quick read.
Moderate: Violence
Minor: Death of parent
