Holy fuck that was a wild ride!

It was really nice to see what was happening outside of the Burnt Empire and I'm super excited to see how it all comes together in the next book.

I LOVE Krushni and Drishya both. I can't wait to see what role they play in the next one and I'm really excited for all of the characters to mingle. 

The villain in this book is so disgusting to me in every possible way and I see that as a sign that he was well written.

Can't wait to read book three!
