This book is incredibly rushed and feels almost nothing like the previous two books. And characters we grew to love in the previous books are also absent?? With no explanation at all??? The new villain is boring and generic. I could really care less about that whole storyline. This was a horribly disappointing ending to a series that had so much potential. Two stars because I liked some of the world-building and introduction of a new culture and the wlw romance (even though it was also very, very rushed). ...more

Adeyemi still has problems when it comes to repeating certain phrases eg "veins bulging from neck" but her writing has greatly improved overall. I felt her characters were all fleshed out more in this book and it was interesting to see the darker sides of characters like Amari. The ending was annoyingly unsatisfying but still 4/5 stars (mostly because Roen is the light of my life. Can we get a spin-off with him after all this is done?? ).
One of my biggest complaints was one of the main villains (view spoiler)[ Amari and Inan's mother. I hope Adeyemi gives us more of her story in the next book. I feel like all she did was scream and be extremely annoying. She seemed to hate the maji for no reason and be bad just "for the evulz" (hide spoiler)]...more
