This was fun and unique! I know sci-fi and fantasy get lumped together a lot, but for the most part they are separate in my mind. Order of Swans manages to blend them in a way I have not seen before with the use of space travel and planets, but also a high fantasy setting. It was a fun dichotomy. 
I think the world-building could have had more to it as it felt like sometimes we were just supposed to know things. However, it wasn’t anything too major. I snagged more on the fact that the magic and and Bellis’ location were supposed to be a big secret kept from Kaley, and yet she never seemed to question her ability to understand animals, nor the fact that she lived through multiple fairytales before realizing she was on another planet. She just kinda accepted it like it was normal which was a bit strange to me. 
I really enjoy Sojee and Mikos’ personalities and even their interactions with each other. I can’t decide what Sojee’s secret is but I feel it will be a doozy. (Apologies for potential spelling errors. I listened to the audiobook 😆) 
Alexandra Hunter does a very good job with the narration. She has a nice voice and clear diction. I found her easy to follow and felt she did well differentiating between characters and emotions. 
Overall, this is a very enjoyable and relatively easy read. After that ending, I am definitely looking forward to the sequel!
