That cliffhanger should be illegal, go into this book knowing you’ll need to start the next one soon after. Séverin still pissed me off in this one, but the other main characters are top tier. The more treasure hunting/Indiana Jones vibe was so fun in this book. I liked the plot just a tad bit more than the first one. Can’t wait to see where the story goes. 

Treasure Hunt, Romance Subplots, Diverse Characters, 1 🔥

“He wanted someone who would enter a room and look for him first, to behold him as though the secrets of the world lay somewhere in his gaze, to finish his sentences.”

“When a man cannot see a person as a person, then the devil has slipped into him and is peering out of his eyes.”

“I envy you because you can look at yourself. You can bear your own reflection, knowing you can shoulder the weight of every choice you made and regret you carry. That is a rare thing as one gets older.”

“Gods burned cities and spared a child. Gods put gold in the palms of the wicked and left that miserable currency of hope in the hearts of the good.”

Love did not always wear the face one wished it would.
Sometimes it looked downright monstrous.
- p.399

The above quote perfectly encapsulates what this series is. This book, it tore my heart to pieces!! I love the world, I love the characters, and I'm so happy I re-read  it so I can finally finish the trilogy!!! Bonus that I don't have to wait months for the book to come out, I can just grab it from my bookshelf this time
