*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.
Envecor is a cursed place where the inhabitants are immortal and carry their hearts outside of their bodies. If someone were to find their soulmate, they would grow old with them and die. As a result, there are people who want to live forever so they would hire a Heart Hunter to eliminate their soulmate. The king, Marius, hires the hunter Psyche to kill his soulmate so he remains on the throne.
This is really creative. It’s a high fantasy journey where the hero, Psyche, has the chance to learn and grow all while exposing some interesting secrets underlying this magical society. This takes a fairy tale notion and turns it on it’s heat for a dark twist without being overly edgy. The characters are well done, the art is lovely, and I had fun reading it. I wonder if this will ever get a sequel or more stories in this world but I certainly hope so. 4 out of 5.
