4.0

I read these books years ago, and upon a reread they do NOT disappoint. The relationships move a bit more quickly than I would typically like, but with all the other worldbuilding aspects going on at the same time it balances out the fantasy with moments more grounded in reality. I'm looking forward to revisiting the rest of these books and finally finishing the series.
