I wish Jes wasn't re-characterized as a constantly horny teenager. In every chapter she's in, she can't stop thinking about fucking the pirate captain, which was frustrating.
The first book set up a brilliant world and plot.
The second book didn't even have a single Thanquil POV, but Blackthorn and his little gang of psychotic murderers were entertaining, and they were humanized. Henry's character arc was top-notch.
The third book promised to take us to the dragon empire, and by the gods, I've never seen such dreary world-building before. The plot could have taken place at another shithole in the wilds, and nothing much would have changed. And Jez fucking died too. If she comes back in the next trilogy, I'm gonna come back and rate the entire trilogy a 1-star for what it's worth.
