ksnethen 's review for:

Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros
3.0

I had some trouble remembering the context and keeping characters/places straight in the first third of the book. It would have been helpful to reread the prior two books first, but I managed to piece it together.

Overall, this was a good continuation of the story. Perhaps is a little too heavy on the world-building politics as some of the motives weren’t clear. I felt like the story was almost entirely anchored around spending more time with the characters, and the over-arching plot was lacking. I do like the characters though and appreciated the backstory development with the parents.
