THIS is what debuts are made of!!!
If you want to wander with a death priestess, considered inauspicious by two warring factions, fraught with evil spirits and a prince to restore to life, with vivid adventures and malevolent spirits to contend with, and a slow burn, simmering and sensational bond between the leads, look no further!!
The world building, political machinations, familial tugs and a wondrous school of magic!! You cannot but love the tough as nails, dutiful and practically perfect priestess Siying with Prince Renshu as the light hearted, bantering goof who helps her live a little and in turn learns unequivocal lessons on sacrifice and responsibility. They are perfect foil for each other in this fast paced, furious and fantastic novel!! The grumpy x sunshine trope faces a gender reversal but you can't love them more!!
The adventures and character arcs are so well etched with each pursuit bringing them to acknowledge facets of their own personality and recognizing the missing portion in the other.. masterfully executed!!! Loved it to pieces.. cannot gush enough!! Go, pick it up and start reading....
Huge shoutout to St Martin's Press, Wednesday Books and Netgalley for granting me the eARC! And my immortal gratitude to Tesia Tsai for penning this remarkable tome!
