I think I have a different perspective as I read this as an audiobook, so the somewhat tedious second act wasn't as much work as it would have been if I were reading it without someone else doing the voicework. The third act does a good job of setting up for the next book. Overall, I think this was better written than Fourth Wing and we need to remember that this is designed to be a five book series, so we're still in the plot and character development phase of the story arch

Things started off a bit slow with this book but the story was great!! I was often hooked and unable to put it down. I LOVE the characters, especially the dragons. Although, Violet and Xaden did stress me out a lot in this book. I also wish I could have seen more of the side characters. I feel as if the side characters didn't get as much time to shine as they did in the previous book. 

I'm looking forward to the next book in the series! Although I don't know how I'm going to survive the wait, it's so far away...
