Sciona was so unhinged at times, I loved her. Her character was so raw, realistic and well-written. Her need to have more power was immense. She was selfish, and a displeasing character which made me like her even more.
I loved how the book started off with Thomil and Cara running away from their home due to the blight and in the end, they ran back to their home and this time, to finally be free. 
Every chapter was so interesting to read and the plot was build up perfectly, the pacing was also adequate. An overall really amazing book and I'm amazed as to how the author fit all this in a 500+ page book, it's truly outstanding! (Make sure to check the TW before reading this book)
