Featured Reviews
I was provided this book as an ARC with the expectation of an unbiased review, which is what I will be giving.
This book was hard to get into at first, but I'm glad I took the time to finish. The character development was wonderful. The magic system was well thought out and described. The people involved were a bit muddled, but the more you read, the more you begin to understand. The FMC is strong and easy to understand, while the MMC is strong, but complicated and dark. I would recommend wholeheartedly.
