An amazing 2nd book and conclusion to this duet! The last chapters were action-packed, and although the scenes leading to it made my blood boil first, the fight afterwards were so good it more than made up for it.

The only thing I have an issue with was how Cam and Link were pushed to the sidelines. I know they did something horribly wrong, but they can't exactly grovel if they're almost always not part of the scenes, especially Link who appeared only on the last few chapters. I'm also aware that Arben snd Kelly needed more screen time but I was really hoping that it could've been allocated more equally.

Lastly, I'm not sure how I really feel about this but the punishment for Roan Bisha was so quick. It kinda matches how he's presence were only felt but not seen throughout the book.

Anyway, I still enjoyed the book despite these issues so I definitely recommend for you to finish this duet!
