I liked this series. But I don't think I will read the rest of the books in the Ixia chronicles. 

I flew through this book. The plot was exciting and thrilling. It was packed with events and no breaks. BAM BAM BAM. 
However, I do wish the book was a bit longer where a few pages would be about Yelena's growth and character development as the main 'themes'. The plot was the main story, while her growth was more of a bonus story to the plot. While I throughly enjoyed how plot driven her personal growth was, I do wish there were a couple of pages where she reflected around this. She was struggling for 2/3s of the book. And then in just few pages she figured it out and accepted it. I wish that part would've lasted longer. 

Genuinely enjoyed this series!
