But the reason I loved this book so much is Nesryn's story. It was refreshing to have a BIPOC FMC with so many connections and interesting characteristics not become the "love interest" side character for Chaol's MC.
I read this book in tandem with Empire of Storms, and I think both books benefited from that choice. It helped the narrative flow well, giving the reader time to react to both sides, as well as balancing the heavy action of Empire of Storms with the lore of this book.

Big surprise Chaol treated Nesryn like crap, but her relationship with Sartaq and her storyline was really great and a fun read.
I liked Yrene’s character a lot too, and her story intertwining with the others after her encounter with Aelin so many books ago.
I felt everything was wrapped up really nicely heading into the final book.
