Last First Snow by Max Gladstone

4.0

What an amazing book. As ever, the world of the Craft Sequence is beautifully drawn and completely fascinating. I enjoyed Elayne's role in Three Parts Dead, but I like her even better in this book as a younger woman growing into her power and making some hard decisions. Fantasy politics are always my jam, and I think Last First Snow does an exceptional job of creating a political story full of people and nuance. There are a few minor things within the book that I don't love, but honestly my biggest disappointment about it is that Two Serpents Rise doesn't do a better job in telling the story of the future of Dresediel Lex - even Temoc is a much more interesting character in this book than in that one.
