Reviews with the most likes.
A very satisfying conclusion. Battle scenes were well done; usually I find myself skimming such portions as being pointlessly long.
I did not enjoy this book. I read the first one also - Blade of Secrets. my primary frustration is that the POV character has constant anxious thoughts and has to learn and relearn the same stuff. The subplots are the same as the full plot. The repetition and the annoying tone of the POV character's headspace did not work for me.
However, I'll give this book praise for talking about sex and relationships positively (there is no sex in the book), including clear statements about consent, equal partnership, changing your mind, and protecting both parties.
