Spoiler
the whole second part of this book was just… shocking. Aelin burning 500 iliken, Elide Fenrys Gaveiel and Manon (+ the thirteen) allying with Aelin, all the other allies Aelin summoned and that all showed up, the many reveals about what’s has to happen in this war and how it has to happen just leave me with so many questions i cannot wait to have the answer to.Kingdom of Ash is gonna be real epic.

My soul is crushed now. I'm so scared for the characters and what'll happen next. I literally cried at work after finishing this.
