The series felt long at times but the ending is perfect. For all that was endured, there was balance in the end ❤️

2.5 I just felt like this could have been so much more. Essentially, this was just a lackluster plot with too much time spent on conversations and less on actual important aspects. Also I think Sabaa hates Helene.

If I could, I would give this a 4.5. Out of the 4 books in this series, I would place this one as my second favorite, just behind the first book, An Ember In the Ashes.
The middle felt a little dry but oh my the ending chapters really made up for it.
Although I disagree with how a lot of authors conclude character archs/stories, I agreed and was ecstatic with how our main characters stories ended, especially Helene.
Tahir continued to balance multiple POVs beautifully and I hope she writes more fantasy again soon!
