I cried reading this book. The story is great and i loved the characters. The POVs change but it’s great. Typical for a Sarah J. Maas book: the last 100 pages everything’s on fire.

Why did Sorscha have to die. What happened to Petrahs Wyvern is so sad. So many bad things happened but it was also funny omg. The end was so so hurtful to read. Ngl, Chaols POVs are kinda boring. I pray that Aedion meets Aelin. The moment between Maeve and Aelin was soo savage (with the citizens not being out of stone). And what happened to Dorian… it broke my heart so much…

Omg what a massive book in the TOG series! It took a while for me to get into this book with the switching perspectives (and so many different characters to focus on too) but I eventually got used to it and loved having so many different characters to explore. Like every Mass book, the last third is just chaos and action-packed but it just makes it so much fun to read! Loved this book.

Amazing!! I devoured this book and I can’t wait for the next one. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I thoroughly enjoyed following every perspective and am so excited to see where these characters go from here.

I believe this might be my favorite so far. Watching Celena work through her trauma was just as heartbreaking as it was cathartic. 
My only qualm, was the switch between POVs. It did throw me an off once in a while because I would be so invested in that current story and then I’d be swiped away to something else. I did think it helped paint the picture but man was this book good. I loved how SJM was also able to tie together so many small moments from the other books and Celena’s past to end with such a bang. It was truly a great book with wonderful character development, world-building, introduction to new characters and spaces, and overall the build up of this powerful enemy. Loved it!

My favourite entry in the series so far. The fantasy and worldbuilding is much more mature than in the first two books. While the pacing sometimes faltered a little bit with the array of characters going back and forward, the widened scope and perspective was welcome.
