This book also was by far the darkest of the books in the First Law world. It was abundantly grim. Largely because of the setting and Monza's status after the first chapter, but it felt like Abercrombie took things to the next level of hopelessness as we get to explore a different portion of the Circle of the World.
Loved the structure of the book too, although the last 130 pages felt slightly prolonged to me. Looking forward to the adaptation and the other standalones.
