5.0

With a ragged and feral scream, Turi has successfully clawed her way into the fantasy scene with this stunning debut.

What a killer read for 2022. A sapphic high fantasy that demands it's space on every single bookshelf, you are in for a treat with this one. Competing religions fight for sovereignty and rule, filled with magic and no hands left unbloodied the wake of a brewing civil war.

Was it a nail biter? My hands are gone! If you are a fan of multiple POVs, an engrossing storyline, a thoughtful dark garden magic system, and morally grey, queer women MCs - this is a must read for you.
