i'm not really a fan of battle scenes. i am, however, a great big fan of well-rounded characters. so it all evened out in the end!

i'm excited to be so close to finally finishing this series, and really enjoying it this time around, too. i have to agree with everyone that says this is more like a big tome separated in three volumes, and i think bingeing the whole thing is making the experience more satisfying.
