I really enjoyed listening to this book. The narrator has an excellent way of differentiating between characters.

Story wise, I was hooked. What started out as a slow paced world building, quickly became a fresh perspective on magic, sci-fi and serious Anastasia vibes. Loved the bickering between Hallie and Kase.

I was expecting another Maas inspired tale of enemies to lovers, tall dark and handsome and magic that just works. But thankfully, no. This author has originality, thank goodness, and a great writing style!
