I fear this one fell just a little short of its predecessors, but still a strong 4 stars. It was more difficult to follow and distracted at times, only for the most intriguing plot to be introduced in the last few chapters (really, I could read another book entirely about that), but still, what an amazing story. And the ending felt… right.

I do think other than the very beginning and very end, this was my least favorite of the 3 books. At times it did feel like 90% of the story was just the army marching, running low on supplies, marching, fighting, marching. And I know that’s not true because so many things did happen!
Edit: I used my brain and realize now that was the point, this book/series was like looking at a slow motion train wreck, RF Kuang is very good at what she does
