A suiting final book for the Red Rising series. As someone who reads a lot I thought I knew most of the twists coming, but they were delivered in unique ways that still left me surprised. I appreciated the end of the book and how it left things finished, but not perfect.

It was a good end to the trilogy. I liked it, I was shook many times, gasped out loud, sat on the edge of my seat, etc. Was it a good book? Let's not think about it!
