Ali’s character kept this book from being terrible. I would love to have seen him get his own book instead of being tertiary and part of a subpar love triangle.

Spoiler
And not to mention the romance. It really came out of nowhere and the whole cave scene could be cut out as to me Dara and Nahri didn't have much chemistry, so it doesn't make sense that after a month of travels that we barely saw they'd almost have sex in said cave.(And also, because this is published by Harper Collins and you should support the HarperCollins Union that's still ongoing).
