Wow, just wow
This series really picks up the pace in this book. The planning, the cunning, the twists and turns and cunning of the characters are second to none.
I loved Lysandra and Evangeline storyline. It was weaved beautifully into the forming Terrasen court.
The slow burn building romance between Rowan and Aelin is so frustrating but just has you hanging on to see where they go next.
The witches storyline developed and started to interlink with the main storyline which made it a lot easier/nicer to read IMO. The character development of Manon and her relationship with Elide was a really nice sub-plot. I’m not looking forward to seeing the witches storyline develop
