I need everyone to read this series, like yesterday. Absolutely gorgeous writing, tender love story set against a mysterious and brutal game of court politics. Velasin and Cae fit so well together, but Meadows allows them to find each other rather than rush their relationship, creating a delightful slow burn that feels earned. I also absolutely adore this world and how magic, gender identity and lines of succession are handled within it. Annnnddd the next one comes out this year!!
