'Tattoos Hurt. If you can't deal with that, don't fucking get one'
Hook line and sinker I was in with the first line. I wasn't sure what to expect going into this but tattoo artist elves got me. A trope I didn't know I needed.
The first character we get to meet is Hallanevae (Hally for the human world). She's been exiled from her home country and has been living big city life to hide. Suddenly an old friend shows up at her door asking for her help, there's a curse that is targeting her people.
The world building was top tier. It was a new kind of take on Elves, magic, making it stand out on its own. I loved watching the characters evolve through the story and have amazing banter, if that's your thing then you need to read this. Endsley's debut book doesn't at all feel like it is. She's weaved and told a story that is immersive and well imaginable. She was able to build a world like this yet explain what is needed to understand without dragging it out, but you still understand.
Overall this is an amazing start to this series and I cannot wait for the following books and more from Endsley. Now I have to patiently wait for the next installment ( I won't be patient).
Thank you to the author for this advanced copy. All thoughts and reviews are my own.
