Kitay deserved better. I wish Rin had more character development instead of constantly being unsure and changing her mind depending on others opinions. The ending made me pity Nezha and understand that all of them were victims. Venka was actually shocking and I really didn't like how her and Rin left off; I thought it ruined their friendship and development just as a way to show Rin's deterioration but I feel like that had already been displayed plently in other ways. I wish there was more of Chaghan and his storyline. Overall, it was a good book and the ending was fitting.
