How to put this. If something makes me draw fanart, I suppose I simply must stan, lmao. I don't feel like I can give a well-constructed review here–I just want people to read this!!
Certainly the middle drags some as the characters are themselves at a loss at how to proceed during that period, but I felt like it was worth getting through as we got to see them learn to live with each other.
This book's got a young woman coming into her own power, grappling with her family legacy, and staring down certain war as an obsessed monarch tries to take apart the family she's created–all in here. A whimsical fantasy with veins of weirdness, and a really fun read.
I do love Lanie becoming the greatest necromancer the country's seen in centuries and taking that power to right the wrongs of her family at her beloved goddess's command. Is it her fault her family have been horrors for generations? No. But she still benefits from her family's legacy, and she's committed to balancing things out. A streak of nobility I can admire, and would love to see further acted on in future books.Also, Bran Fiakhna's whole obsession with Lanie? Chef's kiss. We love that gay shit. And do not get me started on gyrgardon/gyrveard. Insane. If I think too hard about “I will have thee or I will have no one” I'll lose it.A surprising amount of feet stuff, though, lmao.
