I liked this book more than I expected to considering I went into it kind of indifferent about Chaol. Still glad I did the tandem read. Definitely worth it for the way both books wrapped up nicely together and actually finishing with this book was definitely better.

I know I may be a minority in this but I was honestly disappointed. I lost all respect for Chaol after a certain situation and how he treated/ reacted. I think this book should have been split up in novellas like assassins blade. I felt that this was too long. It was a whole lot of nothing. Also, WHERE IS CHAOL’S REDEMPTION ARC?!??! Because the ending pissed me off and just had me rolling my eyes

If I didn’t do this as a tandem read with Empire of Storms, I think this would’ve been more of a 3.75 ⭐️ read. Having the action of EOS really helped move this plot along. I’ve never been a big Chaol fan, but the development in this book is INCREDIBLE. I actually started to like him towards the end. I really enjoyed Nesryns journey especially because it brought more action to the book. The world building in this series is CRAZY, SJM you are amazing! My head is exploding at the last 50 pgs of every book. Could’ve done with out the explanation of their HVAC system for like two chapters in the beginning, but I understand why that point was really made at the end. Overall this was a very good character building story, I am glad I did the tandem read, otherwise I probably would have been a little bored at times.

Did a tandem read with Empire of Storms with made the reading experience so much better! Not as much action packed, but offered a deep exploration of how the mind works in the healing process. Absolutely magical! It also set up so many explanations to the lore of the series.

I am first and foremost a Chaol apologist and I love that he gets his own book in this series because his character arc deserves all 600+ pages. Honorable mention to Nesryn, because to be honest, she does most of the actual emissary work in this book.
