Wow. Just wow. Just another example of the incredibly rich world Tasha Suri has built with the Burning Kingdoms Trilogy.
The end of this book felt like digging my heart out with a fork…and I mean that in the best way possible. It covers a lot of ground from the highest highs to the lowest lows. I am rooting for all these characters even when the narrative has seemingly doomed them to miserable endings.
I cannot wait to see what The Lotus Empire has in store to finish this off.
