Devi and N'dek are probably one of my favorite couples in the IPB and Icehome books. This story was so wholesome and tugged at my heartstrings. Just really a great book overall!
Devi is a scientist interested in how the ice planet functions and how all the creatures work. It ends up isolating her from the tribe since they all think she is weird. N'dek has been surly and unhappy over losing his leg making him feel like a burden on the tribe. They work together on a prosthesis and end up falling for each other.
N'dek had incredible character growth through the book while he was learning to adjust to his new prosthesis. I loved that Devi gave him space when he needed and didn't coddle him like the rest of the tribe. She helped bring him back from the depression he had in previous books.
I LOVED that there was an aspect of jealousy overN'dek/Bridget and Devi/S'bren. I just loved the yearning for each other in their POVs while being jealous.
I’m obsessed with how the Strong Arm clan people change everyone’s names to have apostrophes in it.
