The best of the series for sure! A strong conclusion to the trio. The characters are still the best part so this book being a convergence of a lot of the characters plot wise made it so fun to read. The world has and always will be fascinating to read about. The villain was good, but a bit repetitive. Audio narrators for book 2 and 3 are good. 

Schwab is so fucking smart, leaving the story with Anoshe :')

This is my favorite book of the series! The build up to the final climax is amazing. The romance and intimacy in the book is stunning. Genuinely one of my favorite fantasy books/series.
