Very trope-y but enjoyable slow burn romantasy with good worldbuilding and magic system.
Could easily have been a longer book to develop the magic system a bit better but hopefully the next book will manage that. Gives more of a sci-fi vibe with the worldbuilding including spaceships.
Romance was very slow-burn and I appreciated that.
At times I found it very topical and hard to read as a form of escapism with everything that's going on in the world. This book handles land invasion and genocide and the villains acting like they are the righteous heroes liberating a rogue state.
