4.0

I really like the world and the magic here. The characters are all likeable. There is a clear motivation(s) for Prisca, with a mystery motive (yet obviously A motive) for Lorian to keep me hooked. 

Side note, I love the trope of a group of men protecting their FMC. Check!

I am a little overwhelmed with all the unique names (our FMC has 3 names??). But overall, I loved this book more than I expected to. I have like no notes and I’m eager to read the next installment.
