Packed full of mythology and gorgeously lush prose, the banter between the ever-upbeat Sai and the surly, secretive Jyn is top-notch. The twists kept me turning pages until I reached the incredibly satisfying, heartwarming conclusion. An absolutely swoony, thrilling adventure!” – —Keshe Chow, author of The Girl With No Reflection
