A thrilling end to this part of the series (as I think book three is about two side-characters.) 
I really rooted for Lara throughout this book and despite usually feeling irritated at reading a characters constant guilt-ridden emotions when they mess up, I found the guilt that Lara and Aren felt to not only not annoy me, but I empathised and felt their pain. 
I loved these characters. I loved the sisters and Jor but I would have liked to see depth in other side characters alike those important to Aren, so that I felt his pain with him as he watched them go through pain or triumph. 
A good decision to make the next book about Zarrah and Keris. Lara and Aren’s story is finished now and perusing those characters would only result in a boring book - I’m excited to see how book three turns out.
It’s such a vivid, well-written world with so much more to explore than just Ithicana.
