Certain elements felt a little rushed or underdeveloped (do we really think Rin learned how to master those wings in such a short amount of time?), but as a counterbalance we got to see certain side characters develop into much more fully-formed participants in the story. I think Rin's character benefitted from having so many other personalities to play off of—she wasn't able to stay stuck in her own beliefs for very long. It'll be interesting to see how that plays out, for good and ill, as the story continues.
I'm really excited to see how Kuang wraps up the series, and what parts of 20th century Chinese history she'll interweave into the final installment.

MY CIKE. THEY'RE ALL GONE. ALL OF THEM. in reality, this is just one of those situations where I would read a fanfiction of the characters (dead) reacting to the story because, despite his flaws, I miss altan. and I will miss the other cike members too now that I've finished book 2.
