I don't know how I'm expected to read something else after this freaking masterpiece. This was the perfect start to a new series, while still having that homey comfort feeling of the original trilogy. The world building is so rich and it the four Londons are still so unique and intriguing. I not only loved seeing all of the familiar characters, but really enjoyed the new additions as well. Tes was extremely cool and her presence felt like it belonged immediately. The new story pulled me in almost instantaneously and while this was over 600 pages, I already need more. The twists were so wild and I didn't see any of them coming. Lila and Kell still put me in all the feels and Alucard is still my favorite sassy former privateer. I have so much love for this book and the magic system Schwab created. I can't wait for hook two and I'm so excited to see the journey we'll go on next!
