After blowing through the first five books this one took what felt like forever to finish. The pace slowed down way too much. This whole book feels like it could have been a handful of chapters, and the whole series should have been wrapped up with at the end of a second trilogy rather than dragging it out. We’ll see what the final entry holds whenever it comes out.
