I didn’t really know where this book was going to go, just that everything would come to a head somehow. It’s beautifully done and I appreciate the unpredictability of it. Xiala front and center as she deserves to be 💕
I’m still annoyed with Naranpa’s character arc, or just character, and wonder how her stans feel about it.
So much magic, not as much war as you’d expect, and some lovely turns of phrase. The blind disability rep is great, if slipping a bit, and I hope there’s a braille form of these books. Also, the synesthesia rep in this book, a very small part, is very cool. I would have loved to see more queer rep, but the quotes by R.F. Kuang should have warned me enough that is was only ever going to be allyship. Definitely appreciate the bayekis and Iktan in particular, but side characters all.
Thanks for the laughs Rebecca, really appreciated them in this book!
