I didn’t realize this was a duology and expected a cliffhanger but it wrapped up nicely. When it didn’t seem like many pages were left, I feared the conclusion would be rushed but I enjoyed it for what it was. The lack of communication kills me

but I’m glad it came together eventually

. I liked the ending and appreciated the different points of view between Dante and Alessa. It seemed uneventful for most of the book though, like it was all treading water until the battle, which was not what one may have expected, so I don’t feel like I can rate this too highly but just a good enjoyable book.
