Holly Black, you’ve done it again. The massive conflict between the Crown and Judes father, who commands an army of his own. There are several surprises in store in this book, as well as a truly stunning transformation for Carden. I really loved this book, and I’m very sad the series is over. 10/10 would recommend.
