Such a wonderful duology! I highly recommend to all my fantasy readers out there. It helped me learn more about Japanese mythology, dug to the root of belonging and love, had a great morally grey character, gave us betrayal and redemption, and had some epic battle scenes as well. I wasn’t as into this book as the first one but it was still really good! Just slower storytelling, though the writing was still beautiful and vivid and well, gory.
