Again, the author works with the complexities of friendships, alliances, cliques, conspiracies. Another layer is added - as she walks through power (its use and abuse) and hierarchies. The impact of a single person, with and without the support of others (a few and many) gives the reader much to reflect on.
It’s not a gentle book, not a walk-in-the-park. But I was glad to read it.

When I tell you I gasped and had to close my kindle 60% through....
I very much enjoyed this final installment of the Scholomance trilogy. I was concerned the final book wouldn't live up to the others as it's not set in the Scholomance, but it was a fun adventure! The Golden Enclaves was quite different than the prior two, and the world-building wasn't quite as precise, but that didn't distract from my enjoyment of it.
