4.0

A very satisfying read. I liked Farmer and Sabine and the hunt. I especially enjoyed all of Beka's creative cursing.

I kinda wish they'd stayed in Corus for this book? Cuz Bloodhound was also not based in Corus.

So, the big question: What did I think of Tunstall being a traitor? It was introduced too quick and resolved too quick. If the whole traitor thing was played up for more of the book and if Tunstall's insecurities were also more emphasized, I'd believe it better.

Also the epilogue felt a bit like Tammy going back and fixing Alanna's timeline in order to make the Provost's Dog books fit better in the Tortall universe.

This is the last series in this universe and I'm sad to leave it.
