I love this series so much. Naomi Novik's worldbuilding skills are just beyond. This was a really satisfying end to the trilogy, answering questions I didn't even know I had from the first two installments. I loved seeing these characters in new settings beyond the Scholomance itself, and seeing how the various enclaves worked. As with the previous two, the only thing that didn't quite work for me was how dense and rambling the writing was, especially with mental tangents.
