Children of Anguish and Anarchy was a surprise book from Macmillan Audio, and I was so excited to receive it! I listened to books one and two as rereads in anticipation! What’s wild is Cynthia Erivo voiced this book and omg!! 

While I did ultimately love how this concluded, this book felt more rushed than one and two, which I think makes sense based on its size alone. And yet, while rushed, I wouldn’t say not fleshed out or not providing of closure. But everything did happen quite fast without the running and chasing and slow moments of tentative peace I was used to books one and two having. But, I loved how the world of Orïsha was expanded! In the end, this was another four stars. I need to know though, what about Roën?!
