A wonderful cap on the series. Builds off the strengths of the earlier books, bringing the themes full circle to the impact of Eo's death (as well as Julian's). Excited to move on to the next series.

Reread April 2023 - Loved it even more this time around, such an amazing series!

Original read January 2021 - My Cawpile score: 8.07

A great conclusion to the original trilogy in the series even though it wasn't quite the ending that I was expecting! 

I wish that Darrow had a lot more introspective moments and that we got to be in on what was going on in his head more often and there were a few things that felt a little bit convenient or a little bit rushed but overall I'm really happy with soooo much of this book.  There were so many satisfying moments both character and plot wise!
