This was such an unserious book .... I loved Giddon's continued character development and I did find myself liking him and Bitterblue together despite the truly alarming age gap but this was a silly book with a silly plot and very oversimplified political dynamics. It felt the most YA. I'm actually not sure how we went from Graceling and Fire to this, and it generally didn't feel like part of the series in any meaningful way. It was fun and I had a great time reading it but it just doesn't live up to its predecessors.
