"To anyone trapped in a cage. Break free, spread your wings. May your flight be long."

I finished this beautiful book earlier this week, and I loved it so much that I immediately messaged Braidee to tell her!

Straight away, you have a map, followed by trigger warnings (definitely read these) along with a pronunciation guide & and glossary, both of which I love to see in fantasy books. Braidee has even included a playlist that you can listen to while you read ❤️

The writing in this book is so beautiful & lyrical. It sweeps you straight in, and you can absolutely imagine being right there with the characters.

The world building is perfection, with plenty of references to Greek mythology - there's also magic, a network of spies, an FMC with secrets, forbidden romance, and a deceptive mission to be completed... this is the first in a series, and thanks to the cliffhanger, I need book 2 ASAP!!

Thank you to Braidee for allowing me to have this ARC. I honestly can't wait to see where you take this next!
