Stellar addition in the dark tower cycle, but unfortunately will have to be 6th place out of the six I’ve read so far. Something about it didn’t grab me until the very end. I adored the world building of the various callas, and the sisters or riza were some of my favorite parts of this series so far. But the fight felt anticlimactic, and the ending felt like too much of a rush into the next book. Now, as I did with every other book in this series, I may come back and adjust my star rating to a higher rating. Most of the books have had to sit with me a while before I realize how much I enjoyed them.
