This book is extremely fast-paced and plot heavy, so dispersing the other book in between gave time for things to absorb instead of just moving on to the next.
I think they are some character inconsistencies in this book that yield on the side of saving well-known characters as opposed to allowing the characters to acted as described. This is not a cut throat series and the results of this book honestly seem to lower the stakes going into the final stretch.
The world building I also feel needs a little bit of work. The relationship shop between the gods and the fae and the humans are so blurred and undefined. More established boundaries and a little more of the history of the world I think would be extremely helpful.
Although not the main focus, there were some beautiful character moments at different moments that really pulled on the heart strings.

Okay, so this might also be my favourite of the series too. This book broke me, and I knew it would as it did when I first read it, was I expecting to cry so much that my throat felt like it was being crushed too? No ✌🏻
There’s just so much in this book, so much drama, personality and hope. God. It hurts my soul.
Also particularly loved this quote:
"You will find, Rolfe, that one does not deal with Celaena Sardothien. One survives her."
TWs: War themes, graphic depictions of violence and gore
