A great addition to the story, adventure, love and a death maze what more do you need in a book. Loved seeing Galen’s growth from the first book and exploring the world more.

An interesting dive into the archetype of unlikeable female characters and how those archetypes change over the years. I enjoyed this story though felt it only scratched the surface.

A challenging but inspiring story, with complex characters and rich in imagery. I found this to be an important story about women, being a refugee and fighting for one country and dignity.
