This was my favorite out of the trilogy. I wanted to rate it 4.5 stars, but I feel the need to dock half a star because I don’t think the series belongs in the LGBT genre. There are queer characters, but mere representation doesn’t rise to belonging to the genre. There are so many books that could be considered LGBT that have no business there if that’s the standard. Otherwise, I really enjoyed the final book much more than the first two. The characters connected emotionally on the level that was initially lacking. Definitely would recommend to those looking for a fantasy sci fi read that also feels like literature.
