This book felt very mysterious, creating an atmospheric and nostalgic fantasy with falling empires, some horror elements, and fully-realised main characters who you can root for while also feeling frustrated by at different points. Aleya and Kirby each embark on an odyssey to find Nivela, a lost city not unlike Ancient Rome, meeting each other and a relentless soldier called Nylophon along the way. If you like slow-burn – either romance or fantasy – this one’s for you! - Zoë
