5/5 Stars
Review:
This book was absolutely amazing! I’m so glad I got to read this book! I was immersed in this story and I haven’t read a fantasy novel without romance in a long time it was kind of nice to take a break from romance even Romantasy. The plot twists got me. I was on the edge of my seat waiting for more and it kept coming. And I loved the cliffhanger at the end of this book and I can’t wait to read what happens next. I loved Calypso. I grew an attachment to her from the beginning, and I loved Ophelya for being her close friend and almost sister. And Leandre; he was so so sweet and I’m honestly glad that him and Calypso had a strictly platonic relationship. At first I thought there was more between them but then I quickly realized that it was just a friendship and to be honest, I loved that more than I would’ve loved a relationship in this book. And out of the Royal Scion siblings I liked Avalon, Hectyr, and Kyril. I didn’t really have complaints on the others because we didn’t know a ton about them. And I loved all of the different POVs we got in this book. It gave us just enough information I feel like. Go pick up this book you guys you will not be disappointed!
