A captivating read from start to finish, full of action, adventure, mystery and romance. I enjoyed every second of this!!

This book is brutal from start to finish! Hellevir simply cannot catch a break at all. For those that prefer high fantasy, I would recommend this as long as you’re prepared for some pretty dark twists.

From start to finish there are a lot of awful choices to be made, I didn’t entirely enjoy all of them and on some occasions I didn’t see the need.

It’s a constant battle between Hellevir wanting to help and losing all common sense. And when you throw in the fact everyone just wants to use her and beat her down her, you can’t really blame her for being misguided.

Without giving too much away, I would’ve enjoyed seeing the lovers story go to the other person - she deserved the kindness they were offering compared to watch she got. But, how Marianne Gordon ended Hellevir’s story was truly satisfying, I feel like she ended up in the best place for her.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review
