Thank you to the wonderful author for this ARC!
I enjoyed every second of this book.
The worldbuilding was so easy to follow but still felt deep enough to provide the escapism you'd expect from a fantasy book.
All of the characters are so lovable and relatable. I fell in love with Alard, Raz and Meyda pretty much from the very start. I also adore the way each character represents a different element of the LGBTQ+ spectrum.
There's so many side characters to fall in love with too. Timmie in particular stole my heart!
The plot is a great mix of fun adventures and heartbreaking moments. I loved the attention to detail, not only of the characters and the places but also the feelings.
Of course, I love the fact that there's plenty of well-written spice as the cherry on top of an already fun, adventure-filled book!
