The Serpent and the Wings of Night by Carissa Broadbent
5.0
I very much enjoyed this. Pretty much any moment I could, I was picking it up over the course of a couple days. Very well written and with interesting world building. I like that this was truly a fantasy story, and would categorize it far more that way than I would supernatural. Without spoilers, so many reviews talked about how surprised the readers were by the end. I will say that I had a few “huh?” moments because despite what others have said, I don’t think it ended on a cliffhanger, and was not actually surprised where things ended.
I like that the book is in first person point of view, and that we only know exactly as much as Oraya does. I like even more that it’s interspersed with omniscient narrator interludes. The contrast almost makes the reader feel Oraya’s tension when we return to her limited scope. What I’m most curious about in the sequel is whether or not something people seem to be accepting as fact truly is so. And how that might change everything.
