A review by vinjii
Treason's Shore by Sherwood Smith
3.0
I'm going to be brief, because it's almost impossible to review a fourth book without spoiling the first three.
I felt like the third and the fourth book should have been one tighter, shorter book. A lot of what happens in Treason's Shore felt less interesting than the plot-lines of the previous books, and despite the length, I felt like some characters got an unsatisfying ending. An abrupt one, so to speak. As if they no longer mattered.
Overall, the series ends on a hopeful tone, and I can understand that some people were unhappy with some of the aspects, but I mostly felt relief. For such an epic story, I was quite happy how Smith tied everything together.
I highly recommend Inda as a series to any fantasy fan who enjoys coming of age themes and watching younger characters grow up. This has a military academy, friendships, backstabbing, pirates, loyalty and wonderful female characters.
One day soon, I will re-read this series.
