I’ve seen this book several times in peoples lists and booktok recommendations, didn’t really catch my eye at first, but i decided to give it a go.
I’m glad I did, the story follows Vis, an orphan that wants revenge over the system that destroyed his country. Throught the story we see him growing, learning to navigate the political setting the Republic is based on, and the parts each person plays in that scenario.
Vis is challenged each step of the way, with misteries being presented all the time, that leaves that feeling of ‘I want to read one more chapter’. Only downside for me was that some questions were opened but never really had an answer, nothing that takes away from the story.
It gave me the same feeling that I had reading Harry potter and Percy jackson.
I would recommend this series If you like books that have a unique power system, misteries and action.
