Kaner has created a really rich and interesting world in this novel. From the beginning I was really intrigued about the world of gods, their forbidden nature, and by life of one of the main characters, Kissen. 

It took me a while to really get into the story, but as the different threads of it started to come together I got more and more invested. I listened to the audiobook in tandem with reading a physical copy, and enjoyed that mix a lot. 

I liked Kissen’s character a lot, and found her nature really intriguing. I enjoyed the queer rep and the normalisation of queer relationships in this world. The plot is really interesting and progresses at a great pace. 

There are still so many questions I have that need answering, and I am looking forward to diving into the sequel in the near future to find out the next steps of these characters.
