  • Alchemised

    By Sen Lin Yu
    4 stars

    This was billed as a Dark Romantasy, and was my first 'Dark' novel so I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. It is a mammoth book, and is split into three parts. The first part of the story deals with the MC Helena, a healer with missing memories who has been captured by the enemy. There is alchemy, necromancy, and violence in the war torn country. It is a compelling read, definitely check your triggers with this book.
