3.5 ⭐️s rounded up
A very interesting and lengthy read. Admittingly, I was not prepared. It took me waaay too long to get into this tale, read, and finish it. The Sons of Mil was well written yet nothing really grabbed me plot wise and I believe thats more of a "me problem" than anything to do with the writing.
There were multiple POVs and plenty of world building and action, much of which picked up towards the last third.
Im thankful ther was glossary for Irish Gaelic names, phrases, and terms. Incredibly helpful yet I probably still butchered pronunciation. I think the audiobook would've worked better for me.
Thanks to NetGalley and Lights Out Ink for the eARC!
