it was amazing

I can read a book of just domestic Nyktos, Sera, Nektas, Reaver, Jadis, and everyone in Nyktos's court moments lol. This is one of the reasons I really liked this book the moments where they were a family were nice.

We got to see a lot about the world and how many things in the From Blood and Ash world came about, it was nice to know the truth about stuff in the fbaa world without it being distorted by both sides.

Sera is probably my favorite female character at the moment, I just love her so much and want to sit with her and tell her that she deserves every good thing. I loved her character arc, her wit, and her care for people even though she didn't believe she was worthy of anything good.
Her journey with anxiety and feeling like she wasn't seen really made me emotional because I know how that feels. Her conversation with Nektas something she shared about her (view spoiler) gutted me. Her teaching Jadis how to use a fork and her closeness to reaver was everything I needed.

Finding out the reason why Nyktos couldn't love really shocked me and I don't know why. That moment in the book where he tasted love and didn't know what it was made me really sad. Nyktos can be frustrating but that's my boo and riding for him along with Nekatas and most of Nyktos's court tbh.

Nyktos and Sera are a slow burn but they are so worth every minute of it, we see their character and their relationship develop as they try to save the world from the rot and defeat kolis. Sometimes I wished they would just sit down and communicate especially in chapter 28. I liked their banter and bickering even if it did get repetitive at times. That moment during her coronation when Nyktos gave her title was so good I was so happy.

I can't believe I doubted Ectors Loyalty that moment toward the end had me screaming, Attes disappointed me and I can't wait for Kolis to die.

This book has slow moments and plots and there's a lot of repetition with information, it also has those modern phrases that I hate. At this point, I think that's just how JLA writes and I have to get over it. I'm also not sure how I feel about the Sotoria storyline because I don't know how it's going to play into this story.

I think this was a necessary addition to the fbaa/flesh and fire world, I don't know where we go from here. There is so much more story to tell and I don't know how it's going to be done in one book. I'm very interested to see both characters from these two worlds together and interacting. I also want to know how Jadis is and what state she will be in once they find her. Hopefully, we find out in the next fbaa book.

Also if you haven't started the From Blood and Ash series I feel like you should read this series first.
