Another great work by Samantha Shannon. The middle was admittedly a bit slow, but I was always interested in what was happening. Very different from Priory, but a great read nonetheless. Can't wait to read the next book in the series!

Easily became one of my favorite books of all time. Captivating world-building, and personal connection to the characters.
