*I received an eARC via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.*

I'm not going to lie, I was very afraid of picking this up because early reviews were Not Great and I had such high expectations after loving Silver Under Nightfall. I think if I had gone in with those sky high expectations, I might have been similarly disappointed, but as it is I had a pretty good time with this. Did it live up to Silver Under Nightfall? No. But it was still a fun time.

I have a couple of small complaints. I think the plot could have been tighter because it kind of rambles but without a lot to tie together the various plot points. I think the romance could have been developed more. We see hints of the three of them working on their communication but we rarely see the follow through. And despite being marketed as a sexy poly romantasy and containing hints of kink, the sex scenes were all pretty much close door. My biggest complaint is in the total character shift of a major side character. In Silver Under Nightfall, this character is pretty awful and his actions traumatize Remy, but that's mostly ignored in Court of Wanderers and I don't think anything in the text made me believe his redemption arc was earned.

But at the end of the day, I think this world is fascinating and I love Remy, Zidan, and Xiodan so damn much. So while this was not my favorite sequel, I had a good time in the world.
