The character work was much more enticing in this book. If Malice didn't put you off the series, I think this one will convince you it was worth the read. I was quite emotional by the end, so now I know I HAVE to finish the series. Not sure if this will be one of my favorites, but it's definitely worth a reread in the future. If/when I do reread, my rating will likely increase.

anything john gwynne writes i will buy. this is a series written for me—found family, strong character development, really weird animal friends, and some of the best battle scenes i’ve ever read. 

i am not an audiobook girlie normally, but john gwynne’s writing style really benefits from being listened to and damian lynch’s narration is superb. i highly recommend listening to this series if you have that option.
