The worldbuilding is solid, the magic system is interesting and the the characters were well written. The mm relationship was established and they felt like a real couple. I really feel like I would like a prequel story of Gil, Envar, and Arak’s adventures before this. My only complaint is that in the beginning of book sometimes it wasn’t clear on what name went with who. Gil and Irichels was used interchangeably and Envar was sometimes called Cass. That tripped me up a little but it pretty much went away.
