⭐⭐⭐⭐.75/5
First off, I really love multiple POVs. I love Cameron's POVs. They gives insight of the Scarlet Guard operation and her feelings towards herself and people around her. Cameron reminds me a bit of Mare. And I also love Evangeline POVs because I got to read her love towards Elane.
And second of all, why is Maven so hot in this book. Especially the bathroom scene wtf. Mare and Cal's moments together too wtf. This book is just *chef kiss*
ALSO OMG THE EPILOGUE?!??!???!!?!!? WTF VICTORIA!!!!!

While I get why Mare would be kept prisoner for so long, I would have preferred more interactions with the court, if not with Maven.
Cameron was an interesting POV for the Scarlet Guard/red side of things, which again left much of the political machinations off the page, but at least gave the basics. Even Kilorn would have been a better choice, in my opinion.
I feel like the final third of the book dragged a bit, at least up until the climax,
Finally,
Overall, this was a strong sequel, and I was surprised by a few things; I'm very excited to read the final book and the short stories.
