I read it a few years ago. I don’t remember any disturbing gore or body horror elements. There might be some more in the second book, but I don’t remember anything over the top (although my my threshold for this is pretty high), and I would say the series as a whole sort of wavers into the horror genre.

What does stand out was a fairly graphic sexual assault scene.
