Like the book but it was the weakest of them all. It was just tooooooo long. The were so many unnecessary plots ans also so many things that didnt make sense in this book. 

What didn't make sense to me: The ending with the Fae felt contrived, and Aelin saving Elena, which prevents Erawan from being taken by the gods, was confusing. The constant evasion of the final battle made the pacing feel dragged out. In my opinion, the book could have been 400 pages shorter
