I love women!!

But in all seriousness the world building in this book is insane, I love all the different religions and how different people use them. I also really enjoyed the discussions of fate and power. The romance in this book is exquisite too.

My only critique is that I wish I cared a bit more about Ashok before he died. His death didn’t really impact me too much. But Prem made me so sad!! That was messed up. I wanted him and Rao to kiss :(


Overall an excellent book and I’m looking forward to the rest of the series. This is a truly feminist story in my opinion.
