3.0

Unclear whether having your wings ripped off or reading this book hurts worse. The boring parts were too tedious to put into words. Almost all the action (barring a small bit of intrigue just after the beginning of the book) was shoved into the last 75-100 pages like some sort of twisted parting gift for sticking with the story that long. Condensed to 200-300 pages this could be great. The 3 star rating is based solely on that. As a whole though I'd rather Amarantha drag herself back from hell and feed me to a middengard wyrm than listen to anymore of Rhys and Feyre.
