The book is a drag. Too much action but annoying action. The only reason characters still alive is because they are main characters. Too sci-fi for me

The fact that Kanthe likes Cassta is just weird because in the first book he never even glanced at women, and then he was only interested in Nyx, and now it’s like he doesn’t even remember Nyx exists. Just came out of nowhere. Also I agree with one of the reviews that the female character writing is terrible. They are all the same - oversexualized and “badass” and flirty which is annoying

The book is starting to drag. So many characters and too many words. The plot isn’t strong enough to keep me engaged. I’ve resorted to skimming

Towards the end of the first book it was starting to drag and get boring, but this new adventure is starting off strong. I hope kanthe doesn’t have to marry someone else, I think he and Nyx should be together, but we’ll see what happens
