I’m not sure what to write in my review as this book was a journey, both for the characters and the author. Dealing with grief, war, and some strange acceptance. I must admit, I loved the opening but was hella confused for most of the book. Who is the real storyteller? How are gods made? These questions kept circling and circling around. I loved the atmosphere and the fantasy/magical world. There are many instances that kept me glued to the page – the young child unsure of their own identity, to Mor and her grief. The ending kept revealing twist after twist, now I’m tied up in my head and emotions. Such an interesting way of presenting the story!
