I gave the Poppy War 4.5 stars purely to allow the rest of the series somewhere to go, and I would have done the same for this but I couldn't think of a single reason to knock off any stars. Despite the terrible things these characters have done this book brings you ever closer to Rin and her compatriots, falling deeply deeply love with each of them. It has been a long time since a book made me care so much about its characters, and even longer since a book has made have a visceral response to its plot twist. My new favourite book series and fantasy author by far.
