Not sure why this volume seems to get a bunch of hate in other reviews with most of the complaints being about stuff they either missed or didn’t catch or things they should have expected after reading the first two. Honestly this was my favorite of the trilogy but that’s probably because it got a larger emotional response from me than the second book. (I think I become attached to characters too easily). We get a large ramp up and increase in the amount of combat in this volume, a few new side characters as well. What you need to realize going into this book is that it is the conclusion of a trilogy but not the conclusion of the story. The author is writing a large inter connected universe of book series to build up a massive conclusion for all of them so it isn’t a cluster fuck of “Who are all of these people and where did they come from?” when they start showing up rapidly later on. Don’t expect everything to be answered here as this isn’t a full story only an Arc. Anyways I really liked it and once again Jeff Hays did a fantastic job on the audio side. Highly recommended.
