The path to trust is forged in faith.I absolutely LOVED reading this story! If I had to pick something similar, I’d say it’s a cross between Beauty and the Beast, Twilight, mixed with Angelfall.
“You are aliens to us.”They look like humans, but most of the elite are over seven feet fall. The ruling class have these glowing orbs inside their chests which made me think of Iron Man. The world is set up almost like old-England feudalism. The poorest of the humans live in a place called Population, where they fight for their very existence. As with other books by this author, the world building is excellent.
“We were here first”
“I’m sure your indigenous communities said the same to their invaders.”
“That doesn’t make it right.”
“No. It makes history.”
“If I ever attempt to take from you that which you do not freely give, I give you every permission in this world to take may sword and gut me with it.”I do wish that there had been more of a build-up from them being enemies, to friends, to lovers. This part bothered me the most There were a few inconsistencies throughout the story but the core of Stephens writing is so damn good that those things didn’t bother me too much.
