Lastly, I want to touch on the writing style.

I think a lot of the confusion people experienced could be chalked up to the pacing issues. Another instance involves a scene toward the end of the book, which I won’t spoil, but the jump in time, place, and logic made me quite confused. It goes from preparation to Serefin leaving the scene, almost as though it had been deleted from the book. Off the top of my head, there was a scene early on were Serefin leads an attack on a camp or base of some sort, and while it happens off-the-page, there’s no break indicating that time has passed. My main problem was the pacing within scenes, or sometimes between them. The book had a bit of a lull in the middle, which wasn’t the end of the world, because many books struggle with that issue.

I want to talk about my issues with the pacing for a moment. The side characters all felt a bit flat to me in this book. I hope that the side characters, especially Ostyia and Parijahan, get developed more in the future, because I can see great potential in them as well. The main characters on this series (Nadya, Malachiasz, and Serefin) are all quite interesting and unique, and I can’t wait to read more about them in the future books, especially given the ordeals they all went through toward the end of the book, which fundamentally changed them all within the last 40 pages. The writing is (mostly) quite lush and easy to follow, even during dizzying battle scenes.

The fact that the pronunciation guide wasn’t included in the book itself.

There were some points where the writing style seemed almost inconsistent with the rest of the book.

The side characters felt very flat, and I barely cared about any of them.

(partially due to pacing, partially due to writing style in general)

At times, the plot seemed a bit rushed, and at other times, too slow.
