amazing. it starts off a bit slow especially in the middle, but it sets up perfectly for the main events towards the end.
the character development was great in this one. we got to see a lot more of muntadhir, who's a very interesting character. one moment you hate him and the other you want him to be happy and safe.
alizayd as well, i loved to see him humbled and bring himself back up. he's probably my favourite character.
and nahri is awesome as always.
this is one of the best fantasy series I've read, and the politics is so well written. I usually prefer characters over plot, but the author does the plot so good you get very invested in it. there is no good side or bad side, everyone has done questionable things so you're kind of rooting for both but neither at the same time.
