I appreciate Saga Books/Simon and Schuster for providing me with an egalley for this book through NetGalley, and I am happy to share my honest opinion of the book.
Rebecca Roanhorse is a brilliant world builder. She draws from myth and folklore, here exploring Central and South American themes, but this world is entirely her own -- and now, the reader's. Despite the amazing amount of violence, upheaval, and sorcery in the story, it is a world I'd like to visit, sea monsters and all.
You are drawn into this world, and the adventures of the characters, and you come to care about the characters, even those locked in a deadly struggle for the soul of the world. The key to successful fantasy is being drawn in and never stopping to think "wait, did that just happen?" Roanhorse, like Tolkien and LeGuin and N.K. Jemsin, creates a world that is believable, and characters whom you care about, and even like. You want their wars to end and their romances to continue...but is that even possible?
You'll need to either buy or borrow the whole set, because once you start reading, you won't want to stop.
This conclusion to the story is as strong as the first book. Excellent job!

This surprised me! I was not in the mood for fantasy when it came available on my holds, but I ended up really getting into the story and enjoying it. The world and characters felt so vivid, and the action exciting and sometimes gory. The conclusions for some of them were disappointing (Okoa) but overall it was a very satisfying ending to this unique trilogy.
