get straight to the point on this review.
The author was overly ambitious and tried to include every single trope, societal inequality, and fantasy element all in one book. I felt this was more a rough (very rough) draft/outline thank a complete novel. The lack of depth hurt the world building. Betrayal after betrayal just for the sake of a “twist” aspect.
The concept was interesting but the execution was off the mark. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend this to others.
Thank you to NetGalley for the arc.
