A story where lore is actually explained WHAT A FEAST! I wonder how it ties in with other discoveries. And I almost got a heart attack when a character's name disappeared from POVs. Dear author, I beg you, don't kill that character. Oh, we also got a hint of another romantic subplot! I wonder if that's the surprising one readers spoke of in their reviews. But then again, both options are quite obvious.

That one scene happened too fast imo. Should have had more build-up so that I could feel devastated by the prospect of **** but the whole part fell flat a little and I didn't feel what I should have been feeling. But I still don't know what lays ahead of me so maybe I should be careful what I wish for. Anyway, a small nitpick from my side. Other than that - I'M LOVIN' IT. And Stauros??? I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING.

So far my only complaint is the lack of a map. I'd give my firstborn away for a map of this world. It's easy to get lost in all those lands and regions the characters traverse. And I feel like one of those characters has a huge death flag above their head so that might become my other complaint once it comes true (please, don't).

I'd be interested to know if it's a quick read or not. The Keeper of the Lost Cities books have been getting longer and longer (#7 was 845 pages, plus a bonus chapter, an estimated 212,000 words), but they always feel short to me because of the pacing, the writing style, and how involved I get in the story.

It's got a lot of world-building with many characters to keep track of, but it doesn't feel overwhelming and the author's writing style helps in story immersion!
