It is my pleasure to say that I felt thoroughly sated by this novel, particularly it’s ending. The pace was definitely medium, more on the slower side, yet the character development and plot truly hooks readers in! It felt like I was burning with the passion of Helios and the Fates to get to the end of this wonderful tale! The imagery was superb and gave me that “I just finished greatness” feeling, almost as if I’ve just walked out of a great movie, yet better because it’s right in my hands!
