This one was dense. However, there was so much at stake. This one had a lot of character development and characters reaching their potential. A lot of sacrafice and tough decisions...high stakes. This one was tough for me to get through because so much was happening in various locatuons in the book. However, it all culminated into one big event so it was worth it.
