Death Marked

The way the main character navigates their role in such a dark world made me wonder if I’d act differently in their place. Did others find themselves rooting for or questioning their decisions?

The magic feels so integral to the story, almost like a living force. I’m curious whether the author crafted it from a specific myth or if it grew out of the story’s needs.

Certain reveals totally changed how I saw the characters’ motivations. Did others see those twists coming, or were they a complete shock?
