"Blown away by the ending of this series. It's like Wheel of Time, but in 3 books instead of 14. 😉 Interesting take on the classic story of rebelling against your destiny. "

"4.5⭐️/5<br/><br/>This book is far from perfect as it drags at times near the middle but I’d say it’s still the best of the trilogy. I loved where each character ended up by the end, and I think Islington’s ability to wrap up loose ends is unmatched. The epilogue answers so many questions and honestly the whole series was worth reading simply for that ending. I love pay off in a series and this book is the definition of giving you that feeling by the end."

"Ahhhhh this book series deserves all the hype. I’m not sure how much hype it’s got but I think it deserves more. <br/><br/>The characters were all intriguing, complex, flawed, and wonderful. There was no shying away from the realities of death in a war, which as much as it saddens me makes me appreciate it all the more. <br/><br/>The story was interwoven with complex, deep, and thought provoking plots and words of wisdom and an amazing grasp on how different people view and take on religion. <br/><br/>I was enthralled, confused, intrigued, astounded, everything. Great end, and despite it being an 800+ paged book I wish what happened in the epilogue had happened sooner and that there was more of the after effects of the end. Alas, there is not. But I am quite excited for the glimmer of potential for a standalone book about the Shainwieres."
