The division of chapters by each character’s experience works well for this series. It adds depth to the complicated plot. 

Some key moments felt underdeveloped while seemingly unnecessary moments were dragged out. That opinion might be personal bias based on my preference for some characters over others.

I do think that there are so many moving parts that it all gets a bit muddled sometimes. Overall, solid addition to the Red Rising series.

The best red rising book to date. It builds on everything that book 4 has set up, has some excellent twists and turns with great battles. Bring on the next one
