Loved the almost Mistborn-feel of the magic system. The whole concept and the economics of it was awesome! The one disappointment for me was Silverpin. I felt that whole relationship was weak and random from the get-go. Maybe it was because she and Clay actually had very little interaction? Even if you take out the whole “can't talk” thing, there was still very little relationship there. And it came out of the blue. So when Silverpin turned out to kind of betray Clay at the end, I felt very little. I think that would have had a much bigger impact if she actually had a bigger role in the story and a more significant relationship with Clay, other than “out of the blue she invited me to have sex but we never actually really interacted otherwise.”
I will definitely be continuing with the rest of the series! These books are real chonkers though.
