This book is so incredibly well written and enjoyable. It had me feeling tense whenever I had it open, and itching to pick it back up the second I put it down.
The world King created in this series is so uniquely weird, and endlessly dark, but he brings little moments of light and reminders of the characters' humanity to balance it out (Oy is definitely a highlight of this book for me).
Can't wait to pick up Part IV and continue the adventure.
