Fitz is growing up and building is own character and I am here for it. The writing is so good at showing instead of telling what is happening. The slowed down paced that illustrate how long the winter is for them. Mysteries unfold, showing how interconnected everything here in a fragile balance.
I really loved seeing Fitz character being developed since his almost death in the first book. How hard can it be for a teenager, almost an adult to built himself and making decisions about his future in his situation. He is flawed but like any boy his age thrown in impossible and dangerous situation.
And I really liked seeing him learn and becoming an adult in the next books
