This was a re-read as I prepared for The Nightshade God. I couldn’t remember enough of the first two books to jump straight back into the third, but I am so glad I decided to go back to the beginning. As I was reading this, I was reminded of reveals that wouldn’t occur until The Hemlock Queen, a testament to the plotting and planning Hannah Whitten put into the series as a whole.
This magic system is wholly unique to anything else I have ever read. Poison, death magic, and life magic weave together and the reader gets to discover how it works right along with Lore, Bastian, and Gabe. These characters feel so real and their actions (however frustrating at times) are motivated by real feeling and manipulations anyone could relate with. A must read for all the romantasy girlies.
