WOW. Wow. WOW!!! I thought I knew what this book was going to be—a sci-fi “I escaped a cult” reprogramming, like Adora escaping the Hoard but not having the princesses to run to. But that barely scratches the surface of Kyr’s character and journey. I love that this is a standalone and that there’s so much hope in what seems like a hopeless world. We’re in a blessed age of spec fic!!
