Besides the pacing, the writing was amazing and this book truly makes you think. It was well established in the last book and this one that Rin is a complex person who is not necessarily a good or moral character, but it was so much so that in some moments it just felt excessive. That said, I do love a story where the main character is not a perfect hero as it makes for a much more intriguing read, and this accomplishes that.
This series as a whole is a great reflection of what war, trauma, betrayal, and most importantly, power can do to people. It is an amazing showcase of how much wrong you can do in the name of a cause you believe to be right, and how easily you can lose yourself in the fight to save yourself.
