My Review

Finian is an Oracle. Arabella hunts Oracles. These two should hate each other but that is not the case. I like the slow burn that these two shared. It made it more believable. 

The world building is what I enjoyed the most about this book. It captivated me as did the concept of the story. While, not main love interests, I did like Finian's brother, Athis. He brought a lighthearted, comedic side to the story. Another person that I found interesting is Viktoria. She called things like they are. 

The only thing I didn't like is that I did feel like the beginning was solid but then the story kind of moved at a slow pace for a long while and then picked up again to slow down and finally pick up and stay steady. Yet, this book is worth the read.
