It does take a while to get to characters and to understand who is who.. but the story is incredible!!!!

These books are the definition of Strong lesbians with swords and I love it. The powerful women, the passion, the love and beauty of these stories are soo unbelievable that I am not able to describe them in words. This is absolutely perfect, it's a masterpiece. No other books can replace this for me. Thank you Samantha Shannon. I wish I could erase these from my memory just so I could read them and get mindblown again💗

These are my favorite books ever. I have genuinely never connected with characters the way that Shannon makes you connect with the characters of this story. I cried and jumped for joy and even found myself feeling animosity towards those who harmed my favorites. The romance is lovely but the world-building and politics shine. Truly worth every second.

Pretty good but lots of world building and kind of dense. butttt ya I would recommend if you are down to really get into a super intricate world with lots of perspectives
