I'm a sucker for a good "bad guy" origin story. It was really fascinating to get a look behind the curtain at Yassen's (Yasha technically) character and to see what things happened to guide him to where he was at in the books. I also liked how it tied in with other characters from the series and gave us a chance to spend time with some characters we've only heard of in the past. Overall, another solid entry in this series and an extremely fast-paced read. Ready for the next two books and maybe more (I genuinely have thought this series has ended 3 times now so I never know anymore haha).
