Amended the rating as I felt that there were loose ends that weren’t addressed towards the end. Nevertheless, a thrilling conclusion to the series.

The prose was too dense for my liking. I couldn't get into the worldbuilding and was not invested in the characters' story. The concept of the book caught my interest, but ultimately it was not the book for me.
