I love seeing an insight into Cardans childhood and motivations. Also him being so down bad for Jude is the best.

I think this was a great addition to this world. I love the writing and I really liked the stories told and how they tied into Cardan's own actions and development.
I also loved seeing the tidbits of them in the mortal world and the amazing little dynamic the characters all share as a family now.
I would have liked to see a bit more about Cardan and his interactions with the court and his siblings when he was younger but I do understand they more than likely weren't included for the sake of telling the overarching story across all the shorts in this book.
Overall a great read if you enjoy the original trilogy and very quick I finished it in 4 hours.
