First book I was pretty much on the fence, I don't care for time travel mostly and the book was so trope heavy that at times I was wondering if I had read it before and forgot. Davina was a bit of an annoying and impulsive idiot at times. I liked it more when Kaden became a bigger part of the story. The books playing out there stories of a pantheon of immortals way really interesting and at times philosophical, although in the end

we never really find out who it what the big bad is

. It's very tragic, but grounded by the normal people dealing with more down to earth politics and survival. For such a long 3 books the pacing is pretty good, and the amount of characters and the different things they're doing is just right to be interesting.
