They're all diverse and fantastic. This book introduced new characters that I loved just as much as the ones we knew. The relationships and personal journey the characters take are fantastic. I love the interactions in this book. Atmosphere-10 I love the atmosphere in this. The world building is excellent and unique. The different areas, and how dragons interact with the world keep the reader engaged. Wrting-10 This book was multi POV, and each character that a distinct voice which I loved. The writing style is great, and works well to tell this story. Plot-9 There were multiple plot points in this, and while I understand it was needed to tell the story, at times it felt like too much at times. As much as I enjoyed the story as a whole, some of the pacing didn't work for me. Enojyment- 9 The wonderful characters and clever story helped me enjoy this book. I'm both sad to see the series end, and I can't wait to see the conclusion.
