Human and animal experimentation. Strangulation/suffocation. Mind control, overriding/alteration of will (mostly discussed/aftermath). Abuse and sexual violence, including of children, are described frankly, but not extremely actively or graphically depicted on-page.aseel_reads's review against another edition

It was a really good continuation of Graceling and Fire and built upon what happened years later. I really enjoyed it.
I think about this world all the time and will have a place in my heart forever.
Keep in mind though that you find out some very dark and disturbing confirmation of what Leck has done.
I’m going to read Winterkeep (the fourth book in the series) for the first time and am very curious on what Cashore will continue to develop.

This book, like it’s predecessors, discusses very dark topics. If you’ve read Graceling and Fire, this focuses heavily on the repercussions of decisions in those novels as well as what happened and happens after King Leck’s reign.cepbreed's review against another edition
