This book was amazing. I feel like I can never say it enough. The writing was breathtaking and it has definitely made me a fan of Hafsah Faizal forever. The worldbuilding was easy to understand for the most part and really let you get submerged in its fantasy. I was skeptical at the start, but less than 50 pages in I was hooked. The characters are so well constructed and fleshed out. You see their flaws which also act as their qualities which go back to being flaws. I loved Zafira with my whole heart.
Very brave, but scared of being herself. Her fears are so well portrayed and immortalized. I don't understand very well how she grew fond of Nasir that quickly but I suppose dangerous situations bring you closer. Benyamin was as perfect as the zumra he claimed as amazing. Kifah was the strong, dangerous warrior we all needed and Altair's innuendos were on another level. I hate how Altair thought that the zumra left him behind especially after he helped them escape. Nasir's affinity is to be able to spread darkness and he's scared of the dark. Zafira always finds her way through anywhere. Zafira can find a way through Nasir's darkness!!
I am never going to stop screaming about this. I need more of this story and I cannot wait to delve into its world again.
