It was finished only because it was sth. to listen to during walks.
Plot quite predictable and no suprises on my side.
I liked the concept and the shadow animals but I am not intruged to continue with the series.
Also it continued quite some unecessary detailed sex and cruelty scenes.

I really liked the general concept; a school to train assassins. Next to that I loved the Italian influences that kept peeking in and the characters, the way they were quite clear and put up.
The world-building was okay, could’ve been a bit better I think, and it took a little too long for me to get to the point of where it was hard to put the book down (but I did get there, so POINT).
The way the ending closed up, I’m content not continuing the series and leaving it with this book. As much as happened at the ending, I don’t feel the need to read the rest.

"Harry Potter meets The Lies of Locke Lamora."
For those who haven't read Lynch's book (which you should, if you enjoy Nevernight), this is a story of the brotherhood (and sisterhood!) of thieves, love in the dark, knowing what the dark is, and how to walk in Her shadow. Not for the faint of heart, this is a brilliant magical fantasy that will remind you of The Elder Scroll's Night Mother and Daedric Prince Nocturnal with every word. It is brilliant, emotional, tangible, and had me almost crying at a few spots.

Mia es sin duda uno de los mejores personajes que he leído en toda mi vida y Don Majo es LO MEJOR con sus comentarios sarcásticos y la amistad y cariño que tienen entre ambos🖤 y Tric me ha enamorado perdidamente.
No puedo esperar más a seguir leyendo los siguientes libros, tengo tantas preguntas sin respuesta😭😭 ¡¡¡¡¡necesito saber qué pasa!!!!!
