Again, this book was a roller-coaster of emotions! I loved every second of it and seeing Warden and Paige interact is always a pleasure : Shannon has woven a very complex relationship between two characters, it is establishing itself as the true foundation of this series for me. Shannon does a beautiful job at thoroughly researching the places she writes about, as a French person, I loved this twist on a Scion-modified Paris. I cannot give this book 5 stars as it did not give me as much as The Bone Season did, but it is still a great sequel and I do not know how I'm gonna be able to cope with waiting 6 months for the next one and then years for the series to be over.
