I still really liked this book. No major downsides! It definitely could have been longer. This series really got me into political fantasy. As a final statement: I hope they all get some SERIOUS therapy after this

The story made no loopholes, making all the characters deserving of praise. Somehow all the hatred that stemmed while reading the book subsided as it got the justice in all forms. The ending was not abrupt yet it truly felt like a new beginning, the unfamiliar scent and feeling that happens whenever something new arises. It evoked all emotions aside, letting the readers learn numerous lessons of sacrifice, regrets and forgiveness. It made me think if I was in their own shoes, could I have made the same decision as them? A lot of questions had left my mouth but nevertheless it was worth the hype.
One thing I might have wanted more from the story was Jude and Cardan's affairs which had lots of gaps from the unstoppable call of dangers.
