Wow, what a ride! I thought this series had a lot of potential after book 1, and Scott Reintgen really delivered here! The first book I think set readers up for disappointment and suffered from being labeled as “dark academia” while being compared to the Scholomance series when it really wasn’t that at all. Now that we’re fully away from the school setting, the rest of the world that’s been created here can really shine. It remains to be seen whether the series will stick the landing, but I’m really looking forward to seeing how the trilogy concludes!

Wow. Just....wow. This series is brilliant. The characters all have a depth and breadth that is so rich and compelling. And that ending.....I was not expecting to love this book as much as I do. I knew I'd enjoy it (the first one was unreal), but I didn't expect the level of political intrigue and complexity of this book. A well good read if ever there was one.
