This book has a very great concept and I’m looking forward to reading the next one. I do however think the execution could’ve been better. 

Besides that there are some questionable descriptions which can be perceived as racist views. I do know Naomi did apologise for that and I do hope there won’t be any of these missteps in the next book. 

Biggest ship in this book; I want a poly relationship between Galadriel, Aadhya and Liu.
