WHY did this have to start with a new character. My disappointment level was extreme; I wanted Evar and Livira! All my thoughts were with them, not really focused on the new thread of the story. 
Putting that aside it was still a great read, love how it all came together and the set up for the next book

At first it was hard getting into yet other characters, but in the end it was nice to read.
It feels a bit like the ending was done just so another book could be written with the same plot of Liviria and Evar trying to find each other.

I still found all the time jumps and call backs a bit confusing, but I love the characters. This is almost like half a sequel. It was so short and did not move the plot very much. A lot of set up.
