Iron & Embers by Helen Scheuerer
3.5
dark emotional funny hopeful tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I thought it would be better to jump straight into this after the Legends of Thezmarr (also don't listen to anyone who says this can standalone, read Thea's story first) but I should've done a palate cleanser before starting this one. I felt like there was a lot of filler here and this definitely could've been half the length that it was. I just felt like plotlines kept dragging on and then we when we got to main point of the storyline, it was over in less than a chapter. Would've been a 3 star read, if it wasn't for Torj, loved his storyline so he get's an extra half star.
