I have mixed feelings about the pacing of the book. The siege definitely felt very slow paced and the book felt like it was taking a time to read which is something I usually don’t enjoy, but at the same time the tension was really good. I was always afraid for the characters and despite the slow pacing I never wanted to stop reading.
The one thing I absolutely did not like was Zane. I wanted someone to kill him every time he appeared he just annoyed me so much. I did like his and Straf’s storyline and the plot twist with the poison, but Zane as a character was unbearable.
The best thing though was the ending. I’d actually managed to be spoiled on a couple of things so I expected not to enjoy it as much but there were still surprises and even the things I knew were coming happened in a different way than I expected. It was exhilarating and anxiety inducing!
