Another fine read. Winter was my favorite POV character by a long shot, but too much of this book was just detailing a military campaign, which is perhaps interesting but not as much as a story. Also, you knew the good guys were gonna win the whole time because otherwise the book would end, so it felt gutless. The magic in this book was limited but effectively used, and the colonel's relationship with winter is one I'm excited to continue following in the next book.
