4.0

As a middle book, this hit all the marks - it elevated the story, rearranged the players, played chess with the dynamics. I wanted some more development for certain character's motivations, since some dynamics felt too convenient;
Kais's betrayal for the sake of his mother, in particular, needed to be fleshed out
. The writing stayed solid, but there were moments the author clung too closely to titles. 

That all being said, that Ending Though! Definitely sticking around for this conclusion.
