I received this book as an ARC for free in return for my honest review. I was not paid, these are my own thoughts & opinions. Thank you to K. D. Harding for the opportunity to read and review this book!
Where do I begin? I honestly have no words. I....Not only that, but I literally just finished the book before I picked this up to write this review.
I had been honestly excited. I feel like Merrin could hold a candle to a character like Aelin. She is a fierce FMC, who isn't afraid to be brutal when she needs and gentle rhe rest of the time.
You follow Merrin as she enters the recruits for the Academy. Though she is the heir apparent, she doesn't feel like she's worthy if she won't also endure what her people would to prove themselves.
There's enough mystery in what is going on that you'll always find a new piece of information. I was so entrances in the book that I stopped annotating because I would forget to. The characters are diverse, all with their own struggles. I definitely thought she would end up with one character; all the typical signs were there. She did not, which completely surprised me.
K.D. Harding does a very good job at building the world. I'm excited to learn about the rest of the world, about the different classes and powers. This drew me in and I ate this up. I'm desperate for book two. I need it like I need to breathe. This is easily a 6🌟 read for me!!
