Slow to start but the ending is so fast paced and such a blur I'm still thinking about it days after. If it wasn't for the slow start, I would have finished it in 6 days instead of 6 months.

I was half and half on Fourth Wing, but I really enjoyed Iron Flame. It felt like The Emperyan series finally found its footing. Excellent world building, the story is no longer entirely just about the main characters. We get to see what it is they are fighting for and RY makes us actually feel and care for everyone involved!

Enjoyable ride overall, even if it did drag a tiny bit. It definitely feels more unique as a story to the first book.
