? Review ?

immediately after finished:
I'm writing this text crying and after staring at the wall for 10 minutes... I don't know what to tell you but you HAVE to read it. YOU HAVE TO!
This book destroyed me and honestly it might be the only time I've ever felt this way. Yes Fourth Wing is my favorite book, BUT now Alchemised has changed the chemistry of my brain. It will be forever in my heart and in my top 3 books I have ever read! Now I have to read Manacled to destroy myself again.

a few business days later:
This is the most tragic and at the same time wonderful story I've ever read! the ending will compensate you and destroy you at the same time ️‍?? Helena the strong woman you are! And Kaine, my poor man, what did they did to you…what did the war did to both of you!

In a war drenched world, where alchemy is the main power and the necromancy is at war with faith everything is black, rotten and suffering. Healing is the opposite of the necromancy but comes form the same power. A complex but amazing magic system, a tragic love story to destroy you, two characters that will suffer everything and question their moral multiple times. I cant even put words to my feeling and my love for this book! The best book of 2025 for sure and one that I will always remember.

Beware of the trigger warnings it's a VERY heavy book that firstly talks about war and secondly about love. The themes, the events, the characters are dark and not for everyone!
