This is a very slow burn and feels like a set up for the rest of the series but it’s so worth it.

All the characters were indistinguishable from each other. They all blended together in a big, beige stew. And there were so many damn many of them. I had such high hopes for this, but I didn’t enjoy it at all.

Things I liked: most of the men weren't afraid to cry
Strong, badass women 
Corban and Storm
The last 200 pages

Things I didn't like: graphic descriptions of animal harm/death
Too many characters and POVs 
The first 400 pages are soooooo slowwwww 
I don't think the prophecy was explained enough, especially since it was the main plot

Animal death

there is a pack of wolves that die in a hunt. Young cubs are killed. One does survive. It is an important moment of the story.
