I’d actually give it 4.5 to 4.75 due to a number of phraseology points of order throughout the text, in this case the number of sentences starting with an adverb. There was also a section later in the book that seemed to be out of sync timeline wise. That being said, I have enjoyed the series quite a bit and like how SBT has performed for each book. I do like how the author has put prologues and epilogues to give a “behind the scenes” to what is going on with the main characters.
