All I keep saying is wow. I finished this series like 6 hours ago but I still haven’t left this world. I think this story will stay with me for the rest of my life.
The thirteens sacrifice killed me off the most, I felt my heart break for this team of loyal warriors who gave their lives for their wing leader. I’m welling up even writing this and thinking about it all over again.
Manon and Dorian deserved a proper ending, but I don’t mind the openness. In my mind, they continued meeting up and she eventually removed her immortality to be with him.
Fenrys. Sweet baby fenrys. The most underrated character.
The keys really felt pointless in this book, the only annoying part with the 8 book build up of importance. They could have waited and stored the keys somewhere safe, killed them both and idk, whatever afterwards😂
Special shout-out to another underrated love, Elide. Bold, brave, loyal, fearless… and she even made me love lorcan a little too.
Aedion ruined this book for me, my love for him vanished when he had the audacity to do Lysandra dirty. I will not forgive as easily as she did.

this book had it’s weaker moments, i really think it could’ve been much shorter and the pacing wasn’t that great.
some POVs (especially at the beginning) were kinda boring. it felt off how i had to read about Aedion’s whiny complains and Chaol and Yrene’s shitty idea to meet his parents while the POVs revolving around Dorian/Manon & Aelin/Fenrys and the “looking for Aelin” team were just so much better?
the reunions, the reveals and the action/battles were absolutely the best parts of that book, i had so much fun there. and i have almost zero complains about the ending, i loved these characters so much and i would absolutely read more of this world.

Almost a thousand pages, and at no point does it seem slow-paced.
This book has a lot of war. It can’t really surprise anyone, but as someone who isn’t the biggest fan of battle-scenes, this book is quite heavy on them. That said, the action is written nice, and you can follow what happening quite well.
The series as a whole deserves the hype it gets! ToG and CoM are a little slow, but from Heir of Fire it takes of, and I’d argue Heir of Fire is only as good as it is because of the ground work and world building laid out in the first 2 books.
I was quite surprised feeling nostalgic for the early books reading Kingdom of Ash. Sooo much has happened to the poor characters!
Over all, a great series, with a final book worthy of all its predecessors!
