This continues to be a very strong series. The world building and magic continue to be outstanding. The characters are captivating, heroic, demonic, and just so well done. I have my favorites so far out of the first four books, but so many continue to be standouts for different reasons.

My biggest complaint so far is the treatment of women throughout the series so far. Iykyk.
