 To my surprise I ended up enjoying this book. A the start around the first 100 pages I considered giving up, but I'm happy that I stuck along. Around pages 250-350 I realized that <Yrene and Chaol would end up together, and was incredibly disappointed, because I shipped Chaol and Nesryn. But by the end of the book, I was glad that Yrene and Chaol are end game (I'm almost certain they're end game, I know there is a book to go but they're married). I don't mind Nesryn and Sartaq, I don't have any strong opinions on their relationship. I really liked Chaol's character arc.> I hated Chaol from the middle of Crown of Midnight. I still don't like him very much, but he isn't the worst.

Jag älskar glastronen-serien men denna var inte den bästa. För det första så hände det inte så mycket i början av boken. För det andra så saknade jag karaktärerna som befinner sig på norra kontinenten. 

Boken handlar om Chaol och Nesryn som beger sig till södra kontinenten för att Chaol ska bli helad och för att förhoppningsvis samla en armé. Yrene är helaren som läker Chaol även fast hon avskyr Adarlan. 

Jag är glad att jag äntligen läst ut boken så att jag kan läsa kingdom of ash. Jag tycker egentligen inte att man måste läsa den här boken men om man vill veta vad som hände med Chaol på södra kontinenten så borde man läsa den. Jag rekommenderar dock starkt att läsa denna före man börjar på kingdom of ash och efter att ha läst empire of storms.

I hate this book with every fiber of my being. Chaol Westfall is an awful character who defers only suffering, and I think poor darling Yrene deserved better. All of the twists? Absolutely saw them coming. The blatant and sickening ableism in this book? Disgusting. The only reason I didn’t DNF was because I would’ve been upset that I let a book beat me, and I’d already spent 8 1/2 hours slogging through it.
