I knew this was going to be a quick read going in, it's just over 100 pages after all. Even still I found it pretty underdeveloped, almost everything happened as thoughts in the characters heads. There was very little actions happening. I loved both characters though so it really made me wish them and their story was more fleshed out. The ending with Kristoff is one of the main reasons I can't rate this any higher. They talked him up as being super powerful the whole time just for Ramanu to take him out in no time at all and Lenora got her amulet back. I get that it's maybe to give the sense that Ramanu is incredibly powerful but it just ended up falling flat for me.
