I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It did not finish at all how I was expecting. I love the story and the world building. I felt for Alyrra and at times I was screaming in my head at her but I am glad it didn't go the way I thought it should. It was quite sad in places and really felt for Alyrra but other times she had triumphs which were great to read about. Also read the novella at the end which is the same world but different people and place. Interesting read and I believe there is a link with the Faerie that is mentioned. Very interesting I can't wait to read to see how it carries on and if Alyrra and Kestrin will be in Rae's story.
