I was kind of surprised at how emotional I got reading this. I think Hobb did an excellent job here with her depictions of grief—both the big and immediate reactions and the slow, delayed ones that come unexpectedly. I did miss Bee's presence here since she was such a major part of my enjoyment of the first book, but I still was enthralled with the narrative. While I'm not sure I'm ready for this long journey to end, I cannot wait to see how everything comes together in the final book.
