I really enjoyed returning to the world of Elfhame and while I still prefer the original three books, this is a great addition. The characters were interesting and even though i found the ending a bit predictable I  always had an interesting time reading the book. I really liked the main characters and could understand their intentions and their background. The chemistry between the main characters was really good but I would have liked to see some more of Jude and Cardan, since they were only ever mentioned but never actually showed up. All in all a very good book, excited for the next one.
