Wow! I am completely speechless. I have no idea how would a person would even think of this book, how they could even find the language to construct this world. But they did! And it was fantastic, rich and dark. I’ll admit I had a hard time getting into this book, but I am really glad the author trusts their audience. Trying to understand what the heck was going on was half the fun. Then we have Gideon and Harrow, who were each hilarious and lovable in their own way and as a pair. The last bit of this book was nonstop action that kept me at the edge of my seat, and I seriously cannot believe what I just read! I’m really excited for the next book in the series.
