After a solid run of competency, I like that Carl and Donut experience difficulty in this one. But I found it difficult too. Like I did during The Iron Tangle floor, I found myself zoning out during every race on this one. Despite the large and exciting climax, I found this to be one of the weakest books in the series yet.
I like the Dungeon Crawler World and its characters, but fatigue is setting in. One more book could probably do it but apparently Dinniman has plans for three (book 9, pts. I & II and book 10). Here's hoping the hole blown open at the end of this chapter allows some new life to blow in.

Obviously shares more connective tissue with the first Mistborn novel than anything else. That alone makes it a very pleasant read.

I’m a little puzzled by the reputation this book carries in the series. I found the resolution very satisfying but the journey of book three to be laborious in its lore-heavy storytelling. Slow and repetitive in nature, what character development exists was focused on previously more minor characters. I enjoyed that.
Again, a nice way to wrap the trilogy but I think it was the weakest of the three from a writing perspective.
