2.0

A meandering and messy ending that can't quite decide who to focus on which leads to Ronan getting sidelined in his own series. The book takes forever to get to an anticlimactic finale and an epilogue that's fanservice-y in uninteresting ways. By the ending, the characters and world were stale, missing the variety of magic and strong bonds between the entire cast from The Raven Cycle. Without the found family or multiple forms of mysterious magic, this series rings hollow after one book.
