These books have been on my shelf for a long time and I've always heard great things and wanted to read them so I finally did! 2024 is turning out to be my fantasy year so it felt like the right time.

These books are pretty in depth with a lot of details but I didn't feel lost at any point. Deonn does a great job of weaving everything together so that any questions you had were intentionally left unanswered and then resolved later.

The racial aspect of this book is woven in so well and is unlike what I've seen in other books which really stood out to me. I loved the way the author intentionally used the terminology of root (as explained in the author's note).

I am very excited to read the next book in this series!
