Pros
- Interesting world
- Cool magic system
- Really well done shifting POVs
- Realistic writing (Things aren’t going to end well. Hard choices need to be made.)
- Interesting cast of characters and differing backgrounds that make it not simple to pick one side
Cons
- The book felt a little too long. Parts were dragged out longer than needed, especially the ending.
- They’re we some things left in mystery, possibly for book 2, that I wish she would have just explained. Doesn’t seem clear why she’s holding onto them.
I was really interested in the story, despite it being heavy to read at times, but by the end I don’t care enough about the characters to keep going. That may change someday, but for now I’ll end the series here.
