I really enjoyed the opening of Fairytale Apocalypse. The world building immediately pulled me in and I loved how many different storylines were happening while still being easy to follow. Orgo was definitely one of my favourite parts. He brought so much humour to the story and I loved the dynamic between him and Kagan. I also really enjoyed Tessa’s storyline and the darker elements surrounding Damin and the demon pact, those scenes added a really interesting layer to the story. The characters each bring something different and there are some great twists and moments that made me want to keep reading. I’m definitely curious to see where the story goes, especially with the different storylines eventually coming together. A really interesting start to what feels like a much bigger fantasy world!
