3.5⭐
This is the first book I've completed after DNFing about 17 books this month. It was such a pleasure to read. A bit wordy in places, but decent world building.
To sum this up, it's Ice Planet Barbarians in the jungle. Some significant differences in details, but it's the same overall vibe. Humans displaced from their planet, taken in by a primitive people whose females have all perished.
The analog to resonance is a dreamscape, where fated mates meet each other in a dream world. That's one of the more interesting concepts I've seen in a book, even if it was underutilized.
