In particular, Malta's character work and Paragon's journey really stands out to me. It's crazy how I quickly I went from still disliking Malta to loving her in this book. She's grown so much. Paragon's journey I found to be very compelling even though he remained annoying and childish at times. He too ends up in a completely different place and his maturity and new understanding he's found was amazing to read.
Unfortunately I was pretty indifferent towardss the whole Satrap plotline and Serilla's character arc. They just didn't do much for me.
Anyways, solid book, good trilogy. I was originally apprehensive to continue Realm of the Elderlings and get back to Fitz's story, but now I'm maybe more interested in the Tawny Man trilogy. Not sure if I'll get to it this year or next year, but I will be continuing.
