Rule of Wolves was a lot. There is just so much crammed into one book. It really felt like it should have either been cut back and only included the main characters ie Zoya, Nikolai and Nina or split into two volumes, making it a trilogy, because the story goes to different regions, friend and foe. They’re not only trying to fight and win a war, but also trying to rescue their Grisha brethren as well. The story does almost tie up to a nice conclusion right up until the very end where Bardugo throws in one last hook, looking like there might actually be another book, but sadly I am done.
