Citadel Honey Bunny review by India Today Digital read: The world of the Citadel is interesting, but requires patience from you. It has hidden pleasures and strong action, but it doesn’t seem to appeal to everyone. Luxurious cars are not burned here, expensive planes do not fly, and huge buildings are not demolished.

The heart of the story is in the right place and there is a cliffhanger, but you’ll have to give the series a chance.
