Wow, okay, this book was really good! It was really slow at first, and I was a little bit confused, but when I got halfway through, it got very interesting. Then there was a climax that I'm absolutely in awe of. The sequence leading up to it was really worth the wait, building up one by one for a big show. The world-building was something I adored too; it was written well for an apocalyptic world. The characters were just as good as the plot, especially Nenn. She's my favorite for now. However, I need more detail about the Nameless and others because I'm very curious about how everything truly began. Also, there are some questions that I think haven't been answered (or maybe I missed them), which bothered me until the ending.

Overall, I enjoyed everything. The storyline truly gave me the promising premise I wanted. I definitely would read the next book and can't wait to find out what happens next.
