5.0

It's taken three years but I've finally finished the Radiant King Duology and it was incredible.

The characters and their motives and actions are so complex. The action takes place at lightning speed. The choices made in the previous book have long reaching implications that come to fruition.

I won't lie, it's a big book. So much happens so quickly though that at no point does it feel like a slog.

10/10 read the duology, it's absolutely worth the time.
