I received a eArc of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Kilco and her tough as nails mother, Dr Kira, live in the city of Bethany. Kilco is bored of the humdrum life she leads. When her mother receives a request to become the royal physician in one of the neighbouring kingdom's war camps, she is desperate for her mother to let her come along. Kilco soon finds more adventure than she bargained for when an injured patient is brought to the infirmary. Kilco has to stay quarantined with Ilya , and the two soon become fast friends. Their relationship begins to change as Ilya heals and is preparing to leave the infirmary. Kilco is approached by a stranger who offers her a way to keep Ilya by her side forever. This sets off a series of events that will turn their lives upside down.
What I liked about this book
- The chapter titles - the chapters are all named after different fears. This was really interesting as hadn't heard of some of them before.
- The world - its filled with unusual creatures and magic.
- Pierous and Dr Kira are definitely my favorite characters. Dr Kira is very abrasive but also cares alot about Kilco and her patients. Pierous adds a comedic factor to the story.
- For the first few chapters the story seemed to move along in jumps. It was quite disorientating and i kept thinking I'd missed a bit, but this does even out and the story continues at a more steady pace.
I did enjoy reading Remnants of Atonement. After finishing, I was left with a lot of questions, but as this book is the beginning of a series I am sure my questions will be answered in the upcoming continuations.
3.5 stars
