I felt like hardly anything happened in this book? A good 20% could have been cut. Interesting to know more about the world building and character backstories. But I wanted more action,
the latter half was gripping but slowed right down after the plane crash. The ending of book four made me so excited to read this one, and I assumed this one would end wildly to lead into the final book of the series…. talk about the calm before the storm.

4.25 stars and this is largely because of the last 100 pages or so.
