Enjoyed it, but felt a little rushed at the end, like the author wasn't really sure how to bring on the ending.

Brilliant! This series just keeps getting better and better! Lots of excitement and drama, fascinating politics, richly drawn characters, and an endlessly imaginative magical world.

I don't know if it's the book, or if it's just that at book 3 I'm getting tired of narrator. I found myself getting distracted very easily from the story. I may have enjoyed this more if I'd read the printed version.

I started finding the characters annoying, particularly Lachlan. I also found I didn't care much what happened to the characters.

I may give this series another go in print, but won't continue with the audio.

Loved all the war chapters and the conclusion for some characters were quite emotional
