An interesting twist to have four POV and  having them merge. But at the same time I found it hard to root for either of them. Darrow was acting a fool, Lysander I do not care about and Eph and Lydia at least had some interesting POVs in regards to learning about the problems Darrow and co created with blowing up the system. Interesting to see where the remaining books lead but I'm not really sold yet.

My favorite of the series so far. Loved the multiple perspectives. On the edge of my seat the whole time. Love the characters.

I was concerned I wouldn't enjoy the second arc as much as the first.
There was no need for concern, this was moving and tense and spectacular. 

My emotions... MY EMOTIONS!! 😭
