I had a good time reading To Drown Among the Stars. It was one of those books that felt like a classic fantasy adventure, packed with danger, secrets, friendship, and just the right amount of romance.
Bastion is still reeling from a failed attempt to become a knight when he stumbles across a village that has been attacked by pirates. That's where he meets Ulla, a deaf dragon kin healer, and from there the story quickly turns into a much bigger adventure than either of them expected. What starts as an investigation soon uncovers a larger threat, sending them on a journey to warn Moonwatch before it's too late.
I really enjoyed both Bastion and Ulla. They each have their own struggles and secrets, which added a lot of depth to their relationship. I found myself rooting for them from the start and hoping they would learn to trust each other as the story progressed.
The pacing was sometimes a bit slow, so that's why it's not 4 stars.
Overall, this was a fun and charming fantasy with lovable characters, high-stakes adventure, and a sweet romance woven throughout. I'm definitely looking forward to spending more time with these characters in future books.
