I had a feeling that I was going to love this book. When I read the synopsis of City Of Promise and Light, it sounded just the kind of fantasy book I love. There is so much I can say about this, and I am going through so many emotions right now. I loved the world-building in this book; it was so vivid that I could imagine myself there while reading. I could see everything Sybil had endured, and my heart broke for her multiple times. I was rooting for her throughout the book, hoping she would find a way out.
The characters in this book were phenomenal; I loved how Atkins portrayed each one of them- including Ambrose. At first, I wasn’t sure about Sybil. Even though I understood that she was scared and confused, I questioned the choices she made at the beginning, and how she believed everything anyone told her. However, as the book progressed, it made sense why she acted the way that she did. I’m eager to see what challenges and adventures await Sybil in the next book.
I had bad feelings about Ambrose from the start; there was something about him that fell off. I hoped that Sybil would see him for who he was before it was too late. One of the things I loved about this book was the action; it got to the point where I found myself reading in the middle of the night when I couldn’t sleep, needing to see what happened next. Even though I disliked Ambrose, I enjoyed reading from his perspective. It made the story so much more intense and even more intriguing. I’m so glad that I got chance to read this book, I’m intrigued to see what happens next. Highly recommended.
