This definitely suffers from the "Empire Strikes Back" syndrome where it's mostly talking and set up for a (hopefully) incredible finale. I still love all of the characters (except for Sebastian) but Galina and Irina's arcs were more compelling than the others for me. The world of Raiz and the expansion of the existing religious systems were very well done too. I'm very excited for the finale to this fun fantasy trilogy! The twists are very well done and unpredictable so I really have no idea what to expect for the third book.
