It feels good to be back.

To the friends. To the victories. To the tension and to the pain.

A lot of things I missed here, but not as much as I'll miss all these characters while I wait for Red God.

Except for Lyria, to be honest.

--- Kind of spoilers ahead! ---

There are some things that I found a little forced, but I get the choices made by Pierce Brown. However it is a little tough for the suspension of disbelief when you end up needing to meta-justify stuff.

On the other hand, I have been an advocate of Lyria and Lysander on previous books, and on this one they just became what all the other people always told me. I believed in you, and you chose to betray me.
