After reading the first two books and rating them both five stars I was nervous this one would not hold up. While it was not my favorite of the trilogy it definitely held up and was an excellent conclusion to all of the story set up in the first two books. I had no lingering questions, and while I would always want more time with these characters I think it ended perfectly.

This was a great addition to the series. This book surprised me. I thought it would be similar to the last one in terms of being mostly about politics but it was not. I was glad that there were twists and turns that I was definitely not expecting

Spoiler

like Carden turning into a giant snake??
