Incredible.
I was hooked from the very first page. The way John Gwynne writes his characters is just amazing. The battle scenes? Phenomenal.

My favorite character is Orka. I mean don’t we all love her? She’s the definition of a mama bear.

Even most of the side characters are so well written , thought-out and compelling.
Røkia and Grend? Incredible. I loooove the creatures!

I honestly don’t know what else to say. If you’re reading this and thinking about buying this book, do it.
Thank you.
