4.0

A good ending to the story, though it did feel quite slow in the middle and then very rushed in the final battle. Plus some of the motivations seemed new and questionable, which makes me wonder whether the author planned it from the start or kind of made it up a little bit as she got to this book. There's also one death I won't forgive her for 😢

Also as I've listened to the whole series on audiobook I was very frustrated by the narrator for Elias being different in this book, and got annoyed every time they pronounced something differently (read: wrongly!) or when they did a voice for another character wrong. So that took me out of the world a little bit, but I still enjoyed this book.
