I loved this book so much, it just took me almost 100 pages before I got really into it, and It might be because I took breaks in between reading but honestly this book was just amazing to read. It was so good that I didn't want to put it down but I also did because I didn't want to finish the book and the world, their characters and lives to all be over. But eventually I just sat down and read just over two hundred pages in one day cause that's how into the book I was. 

I would recommend reading the first two book first (obviously) to understand this book but I thoroughly enjoyed the writing, the character devolvement and the revel of traitors and the exciting but very welcomed twist and turns that were around every corner. I loved this book to bits and I would have given it 5 stars, but it just took me a while to fully get into it, but I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who will listen to me talk about it.

This was a great addition to the series. This book surprised me. I thought it would be similar to the last one in terms of being mostly about politics but it was not. I was glad that there were twists and turns that I was definitely not expecting

like Carden turning into a giant snake??

a very tense conclusion! loved the more romance in this book it was great! the s book has not left my mind since i read it. Jude is so amazing but newly raw in this book - we get to learn a bit about her deeper emotions bere and it’s truly very captivating. this was my favorite of the trilogy.
