4.0

When I say I want a slow burn, THIS is what I mean! Brigitte did such a great job fleshing the story out and it’s only the first book! The story was full of witty banter and tongue in cheek humour between Aurienne and Osric which was such a delight to read! I was chuckling to myself throughout the book. It took me some time to get into at first, but once I was in I was IN! Aurienne is a healer and has a brilliant mind and a sharp tongue, and Osric is a sarcastic assassin, and seeing them go back and forth was so fun. I will say this is a very STEM heavy fantasy with medical-like terminology throughout the book, and I did enjoy it! It was refreshing to read. I look forward to the next instalment! 

Thank you to NetGalley and Berkley Publishing Group for an advanced reader copy of this book.
