I had absolutely no idea what to expect when I signed for this one. There wasn’t even a blurb yet, not that the blurb is giving anything away…but still. Just knowing this was written by Ella Fields was good enough for me.
That said, I am gonna be honest and say that I got confused on more than one occasion when reading this one. I am not a huge fantasy reader, and one of the reasons I am not is because English is not my native language, and fantasy novels tend to get a bit wordy…therefor leaving me a bit confused. Of course, this is not the author’s fault, this is just a personal flaw of mine 😛
I could have done with a bit worldbuilding though..
Putting aside the fact that I got a bit confused at times, I still really enjoyed reading this one. If there is one thing this author is very good at, it is building up the tension. Things get revealed one piece at a time, making the reader hunger for more information.
I absolutely loved queen Audra, she really reminded me of a young version of Snowwhite’s queen from the series “Once Upon a Time”. Such a kickass lady 😉
Now for the shocker…this is a “love-triangle” story and we all know I am not a fan of that particular trope. Surprisingly though, I didn’t mind in this setting. Maybe it had to do with the fact that this wasn’t like any other fantasy book I have ever read and it certainly wasn’t what I expected. Which is very refreshing for a change I must say.
I do advise everyone to jump into this one blind….don’t read too many spoilers 😉
