I mean, I knew it was 5 stars when I was balling my eyes out in the first chapter. It's been a journey! An antagonist worse than Joffrey in GoT had me absolutely stressed with all the injustice. Those medieval times just weren't so great - a constantly evolving system. I couldn't put it down, but equally I was afraid to keep reading as I didn't want things to keep happening to my pals. An incredible book.
