I wish I could call this penultimate book “the storm before the calm,” but it’s so action-packed that I couldn’t stop turning the pages.

As I reached the final chapter, my stomach was in knots, filled with anticipation and dread for the characters I’ve grown to love. Liu’s storytelling continues to captivate, weaving intricate plots, intense action, and deeply emotional moments.
This book has set the stage for what promises to be an unforgettable conclusion. It’s an exhilarating and nerve-wracking way to kick off my 2025 reading journey. If you’re a fan of epic fantasy, this series is a must-read!
