Dystopian fantasy
In a post-apocalyptic world, humanity teeters on the brink of extinction. In this first installment of the Rim Walker series, Heyes paints a vivid picture of a world ravaged by environmental devastation and transformed by the emergence of magic and mystical forces.At the heart of the story is Zemira Creedence, a compelling protagonist with extraordinary abilities that could shape the fate of this new world. As she grapples with her own inner darkness and confronts the looming threat that jeopardizes everything she holds dear, Zemira embarks on a journey of self-discovery and redemption.Heyes combines fantasy, magic, and environmental themes to create a richly imagined world brimming with intrigue and danger. However, despite the novel's intriguing premise, pacing issues and flat character development detract from the overall impact of the story.Overall a decent story for those looking for dystopian fantasy.

Can't wait for the rest of the series!
The Girl Who Broke the World! Wow, what a fantastic read. I love dystopian settings, and this story really ticked all the boxes for me. I was hooked. The pace was fast, the story was polished, and the characters were well-developed.The energy between the antagonist and protagonist was electric. It was hard to know who to root for because I liked the depth of the characters so much and felt very invested in both sides. I can't wait to see how this series evolves -- and I'm sure it will be on the big screen at some point in the future.

Fast paced exciting read
I loved all that this book contained, from the post apocalyptic world, the creatures it contained and the characters that seemed to jump from the page. King Ravaryn had to be my favourite character. The twists and turns in this book had me guessing all the way to the end, and the final twist has me ready to dive straight into book 2! Great fantasy read.
