Someone was telling me about this. I’ve added it to my TBR lol 😂

I have to say, this book felt really... lack luster for a majority of the time.

It heavily focuses on the other characters, their development, and their experiences. Which while I'm happy to see it, seemed last minute to me.

When you have 2 full books focused on one character, you expect the last one to do the same, and this one kinda veered from the formula.

I understand why, especially given the plot twist at the end, it all ended up making sense. But it was difficult for me to focus on the story 😕

There's a lot more attention to the world building and magic system in this one as well. Lots of things the characters didn't know about, we learn with them. Lots of truths are uncovered and I did like that part a lot.

There is definitely an underlying theme about religion and faith in this series, and this book especially hones in on that.
One of the characters is trying to find his faith and struggles with the fact that so many religions contradict themselves.

Towards the end, though, he realizes that even though all religions are different and "false," they all have aspects of the truth within them. Which I think is a beautiful way to view religions.

Here's my favorite quote:
"Why did they believe? Because they saw miracles. Things one man took as chance, a man of faith took as a sign...
