An excellently crafted debut of historical fantasy steeped in Irish folklore and mythology. The world Lawless has built in this novel is rich and immersive with a compelling story that keeps you moving at a steady pace. I highly enjoyed both of the FMC’s especially Gormflaith her POV was easily my favorite. I highly recommend checking out this series.
