I didn’t enjoy this one as much as the 3rd one, which is odd, because more happens in this one. There is more dramatic plot progress here. But I think the 3rd book may have been stronger on character beats, and that’s what I really love.

This is when the series finally gets a character chart! That’s been needed since book 2, so that was good. Though to be honest this is the point when I need it less!

Fetnalla and Evanthya are definitely a highlight here. Their arc feels headed for tragedy at the moment, so I’m nervous
