And Inan, who was once their enemy, is now an ally who must navigate his own complicated relationships and loyalties.
There are also several new characters introduced in the book, each with their own unique personalities and motivations. Adeyemi does an excellent job of fleshing out each character, making them feel like real people rather than simply plot devices.
