This is a mix of paranormal, historical, and science-fiction. It has the aesthetic of the Dark Ages, but there was damn near modern scientific technology that it felt a little odd.

This has long chapters and it’s really dense. It’s not something that you can just MINDLESSLY read; you actually have to pay attention otherwise things aren’t going to make sense & you’re gonna have to reread sections/pages.

And if you didn't know it already about this book, this book has a polyamorous relationship between Remy, Xiaodan and Zidan. I have never read a book with a poly relationship so I can't say if the rep of one was bad in this, but I can say that I think the dynamic between all of them, how they viewed each other as individuals and in the relationship was well done and I believed it.

And the ending??? There’s going to be another book, there has to be.

Gripes:
There is a lot medical terminology & sciency things that just went RIGHT over my head. I also wasn't a big fan of the action scenes. Not that they were written poorly, I just don't care to read about them and Chupeco wrote them in enough detail that I would check out as soon as a battle scene was happening.
