Sometimes books just sound too good. I actually have to request fewer review copies, but when I came across this book on Netgalley I just couldn't help myself. The author granted me one and after the initial shock, since this is quite a big book, I started reading.
Although this is quite a big book I was intrigued from start to finish. I was always looking forward to continuing reading. I was always curious what was gonna happen next. It's quite a commitment to start this book, but it's absolutely worth it. The pacing also feels quite natural. I wouldn't have wanted the book to be faster. I for sure wouldn't have wanted the author to rush things more. After all, especially the heroine has quite some growing to do and that simply takes time.
I also loved how this book was written in such a way that we got to see quite a lot from the world it's taking place in. The world is a lot bigger and I'm already curious about the kingdoms we haven't heard or seen anything of. However, I never felt lost, I never felt overwhelmed. The author painted clear and beautiful pictures of the kingdoms we do get to see. I like how they each have their own custom and culture and how there are so many people with their own dreams and wishes inhabiting them.
The true stars of the story were the characters, though. The heroine grows a lot throughout the story. Although the circumstances are forcing her to grow and learn, it does feel natural and realistic. I also loved the connection between her and her alphas. Their dynamic was touching, respective and also developed naturally. All three of them were also layered and complicated. Most of all they were all easy to like and root for. I can't wait to read the next book in the series!
