This book, the entire series, will forever live rent free in my brain. This opening book gives the reads a great introduction to the characters, world, magic, & politics.
Diem Bellator is the perfect fiercely protective FMC that is struggling to find her path in a world full of Descended that want to keep everyone oppressed.
Note to readers, this is a sloooooooow burn. A spark is about as hot as it gets in book 1. However, keep reading because the plot thickens, the tension rises, and things heat up as the series moved forward.
