Honestly this book really surprised me. Mid way through I thought it was going to develope into some sort of Coloniser romance. It thankfully didn't. 

What I enjoyed about this is how confrontational Thomil is to Sicona. He does not allow her to live in her delusions and faulty beliefs at all. Pretty early on he set the theme for the novel. What is ultimately considered a good act ? A person who has good intentions but it leads to harm or a person who has bad intentions but leads to good for the people? Sicona had to face both situations in the end and through her beliefs she took the actions that she did. She let go of all illusions she had about herself and embraced herself as who she is. And even though I still didn't like her in the end , I commend her for that.
