adventurous dark emotional tense medium-paced

This whole trilogy is fantastic and heartbreaking. I really appreciate the whole messaging about empire and societies built on the suffering of others never being able to last, it feels more relevant than ever, and I also love the way the whole series has this undercurrent of hope running through it even as it is incredibly bleak. I will admit, I was a bit underwhelmed by this book compared to the other two books in the series, partly, because I saw the ending coming. But I still really enjoyed this book a lot and I think this whole series has been cemented as some of my favorite books of all time
