thank you Entangled Publishing, LLC, Entangled: Teen for an eARC
I'm already looking forward to rereading this book! So many little small details that I know will mean something else during a reread.
<I>"The order to steal a priceless tapestry from a Dokkaebi temple incites not only the wrath of a legendary immortal, but the beginning of an unwinnable game…
... But she can win her life—if she kills him first.
... Lina will have to use every weapon in her arsenal if she wants to outplay this cunning king and save her sister...all before the final grain of sand leaks out of the hourglass." </I>
The general banter of this book was immaculate. I found all of the characters to be likable and thought that they complimented each other well. Every action in the book made sense and I never felt like something was out of place.
This book is perfect for anybody who is looking for a young adult high fantasy book. This is also the perfect introduction into high fantasy because the worlds are adequately explained but not over the top.
