A review by nicoledrabek
White Night by Capes

adventurous dark emotional slow-paced

5.0

thanks to booksirens for providing me with an e-arc of this book in exchange for my honest opinion!

this was on my short list of most anticipated releases of 2024, and i was so excited to be chosen to be one of the people to be able to review it early. i love this series, these characters, this world. this installment had almost no disappointments. a lot of this book was worldbuilding by way of political maneuvering, but it always felt earned and propelling the story forward because of the author's writing style. i feel like the tide has turned on samson this book (but don't worry, helisent still has plenty of cool stuff to do) and samson is staring up at that mountain he has to climb that his character arc has been building toward. the payoff is phenomenal.

i can't believe i have to wait until 2025 for book four (fingers crossed i get to read that one early too!)
