The narration for the audiobooks for this entire series is excellent but I really enjoyed this one! I felt most connected to these characters more so than the previous two, particularly the side characters such as Millicent.

I flew through this book super quickly but overall found the plot and characters just ok. There were multiple themes of physical and mental abuse throughout the plot that were not dealt with well, both when there were occurring during the story or after the event, by the main characters.

A character's p*n*s was referred to as a "lump of hard flesh" multiple times. Also, the magic system made no sense. Some interesting moments, I did finish the book, but it was not great.
