This book is somehow MORE of a wild ride than the second in the trilogy. I was worried, hopeful, invested, and a little furious the whole time. This would be an easy five stars except there’s a style change related to timing, perspective,  and a suddenly unreliable narrator that was very off putting so late in the series. There could have been a much smoother way of shocking the reader which the author had done plenty of times.
