4 Stars - This was, I'd say, mostly about establishing the world and politics behind the rest of the series. There was some magic. There was intrigue. There were some answers. But this was not a complete story arc. The arc must be the trilogy together. This was, however, enjoyable. I really liked the first 2 seasons of the series. I didn't see the third or the second half of the second because of funny stuff with the tv channel. But I'm going to read the books before I try the series in full on streaming.
