I thoroughly enjoy immersing myself in this world. It is cerebral, and dark. The mind bending magic system really scratches an itch in my brain. Sasha and Farik have an interesting, and contemptuous relationship that I enjoy following. The world building in this is as deep and wonderful as in Vita Nostra. I really love that the reader is in the same position as the protagonist when it comes to learning about the magic system and its dangers.  I do hope the 3rd story is released.
