I really enjoyed Wielders Prize! It’s the first book in the series and it had a bit of a prequel vibe to me. I really liked the technique the author used of having the beginning of each chapter be a flash back to Minas past, or interactions with Rixen. 

Mina and Rixen were really sweet together and I found Mina’s shyness and inexperience so charming. While their relationship overall was a bit of a slow burn, once they were made partners the romance went full steam ahead!! One-tub is definitely a new favourite micro trip of mine haha. 

Overall was a fun fast read that I’ve had on my tbr for a long time, and I’m excited to see where the story goes!
