so-soPros: A great hook (Every single night in this fantasy world demons rise from the ground and kill anything they find. Humans survive the night by painting magic wards on their buildings or in portable ward rings on the road) and thoughtful world-building.
Cons: Dull repetitive prose (see #bulged). Odd pacing that seemed to linger on boring stuff and skip interesting stuff. Incest, sexual assault, and rape that were all unnecessary to the plot.

TobeyTheScavengerMonk @saresmoore It felt like the author was maybe trying to make some kind of statement by including them but it never added up to more than “The feudal system really sucked for women, huh?” 6y
llwheeler @TobeyTheScavengerMonk oh dear. I have this sitting on my tbr and i'm not sad that I haven't gotten to it yet, then... 6y
