I am sorry on behalf of everyone who created drama regarding the release of your book. I am so glad you have decided to have this published. There is nothing wrong with the content of your book or the themes.

I loved the first 2 chapters. This has just left me wanting more and I will be ordering myself a copy. Great start to what I believe will be a 5 star read for me personally.

I'm absolutely hooked!!! I wish I didn't have to stop after the two chapters. The description is beautiful, I really felt like I was in every scene from the dank prison to the blinding marble halls. I can already tell this will be a great book.

A sneak peek at a book that has intruiged me since it was first announced and I'm glad that the author decided to publish this! Any world set in Easter Europe always intruiges me. Adding a murder mystery and magic to it, makes this even better. Looking forward to reading the whole book!

Based on this I stand by my original rating and review of the arc for thre full I received earlier in the year. I'm very glad Zhou decided to publish after all.

A sneak peek at one of my most anticipated reads of the year, this immediately pulls you into the intriguing story of a princess trying to solve the mystery surrounding her father’s murder, and the other terrible secret surrounding her affinity to blood. It’s a secret that’s kept her hidden behind walls her whole life.

Excited to read this in November.
