The only complaint that U gave about this book, is that I found the start way too fast for me. Like 20 things happened in the first few pages. But I absolutely loved this book!!! The relationship between all the characters and how mysterious it is was just amazing.
The romance between Tal and Athlen was so good, the way Tal was so obsessed with him when he barely knew anything about him, the way that Athlen wasn't scared for Tal's magic, their overall relationship was just really nice to read. The relationship Tal has with his family is so so sweet, I love Garrett and Kest, how they were so heartbroken when Tal was kidnapped absolutely killed me. The whole kidnapping scene was so hard to read since it was all so sad. The amount of trauma that he experienced, especially his sickness, I found it really good how that was portrayed. How he hated his magic but he used it for Athlen was such a good way to convey their relationship.
I really loved this book!! The (other) only thing, is that I want a second one!-
