Didn’t get in the rhythm and took a long time to finish
3 étoiles
I don’t know if the fault was the book’s or mine, but it took me a lot of effort to pass the two-thirds mark, after which I started going faster.
The ending felt a bit rushed, with some hand-wavy explanations and too much luck to be credible. In a way it’s deconstructing the myth of the prophesied hero, the One, etc., but on the other it’s building a lot of expectations for a finale that feels too little.
Some characters get more developed, which is nice.

I had loved The Blacktongue Thief but didn’t remember a lot from it. This book builds so much lore without being boring. There are some very original ideas.
The main character is not a talker and I would have liked a little more introspection on her part. It still avoids the “warriors insensitivity” you read in a lot of “realist” fantasy, and that’s nice. I also thought there were some issues with the rhythm but nothing too bad.
