I adore Helen so much. Spending time with her was an absolute delight. Mathiras was harder to pass time with, particularly at the beginning of the book when he insisted on infantilizing Helen and really everyone else around him. He clearly thinks he is the only adult in his entire world and therefore should be in charge of everything, and that was pretty irritating. Fortunately he gets over it, mostly. The adventure aspects of the story really worked for me and were the most compelling part. The book could have been shorter, though. Fourteen hours is long for the amount that happened within the pages.

I really loved this series and I think Mathiras and Helen’s story was a great way to finish it off. I look forward to reading Bethiah’s story. It’s definitely going to be a wild ride.
