Wow so much happens in this book. It was action packed from the beginning to the end. I had so many mixed emotions empathizing with both sides— due to the different povs— but the evil was so evil! The plot moves fast and didn’t feel like it was repetitive or predictable. I loved it so much. Highly recommend!

Book 3 of 4. I am reeling from this one. Ruin, such a fitting title. I am so invested in these characters at this point it is amazing. I will continue on and hope for a less dreary outcome. What started out as a good vs. evil where a reader was left figure out which "champion" was which has now turned into some shades of grey in the black and white. I find characters I am rooting for hard and hopeful that there is still another book for them! I find some that I just dislike and glad there is another book where they may get what is coming to them, though with the tone of this series I am not certain that they will. I also have some characters that I feel bad for as they got caught up in a trap and hype until there was no turning back.
I still highly recommend this series to my friends who love character driven and epic fantasy. Even those that have asked me about newer series and authors that will not leave you disappointed and running back to the classics because you are hesitant to pick up anything new.
