Loved the further development here, especially with how the world would realistically deal with the aftermath of the Collapse. The arguments felt real, and you could see where tensions from all sides/socioeconomic groups stemmed from. 

With that being said, the romance could definitely be written better. I am not a big fan of miscommunication tropes or of people in a relationship not being able to talk to each other. 

The love triangle (if you could even call it that) between Zane and Vin was so forced and not believable at all. The shifting perspectives from Vin to Zane actually probably confused things even more and would have been better if we didn’t see things from Zane’s POV.

The plot twists were great in this book.

Finding out about OreSeur’s death had me floored. And revisiting Kwaan’s words carved in stone was incredible

Loved this book. Perfect amount of slower and faster chapters. I cannot wait to start the last book in this trilogy to find out what happens next.
