I waited a couple of hours before writing this review because this story shook me to its core. However, even after some time to come up with a concise and proper review, I’m honestly still speechless.
The beginning of this book had me worried I wouldn’t be able to finish it and would have to abandon it, but the story changedand the torture stopped just as I was about to reach my limit and damn did it take off after that.
All the build up in the previous two books were worth it to come to this conclusion of this trilogy. Although this isn’t the end of Darrow’s story, this felt like a well rounded and delightfully wicked pitstop and would be a pretty good end if you’d decided not to read along. I, however, have already started the next book; onto the next battle and howl :)
