Jay Kristoff is a master. This book had it all: wonderfully vibrant characters, a creative setting, and a reflective imagining of what constitutes humanity and what it means to be human. It was fast-paced, full of guns and fabulous fight scenes. Kristoff created a world that sparkles.

Mad Max meets Pacific Rim meets the story of the Romanovs. It had me hooked and I can't wait for book 2.
