After trying to process my feelings, it is with a heavy heart that I'm downrating it to 2.

I'm devastated by the finale of this trilogy. It's been one of my recent favorites to follow and I fell in love with the ensemble cast and Kaner's writing over the first two installments. I'm incredibly biased in saying that my favorite dynamics have been between Skedi and Inara, and Elo and Arren, so I feel like the pacing of book 3 and the events that happened here simply weren't a match with what I was hoping for.

I'm so sorry for being vague here, but I'm doing my best to not spoil MAJOR things in this book. ๐Ÿคฃ
On one hand, the trajectories of the characters and the arcs made sense on a technical term, but there were many things that I wish happened in the final installment that I can't help but feel like comparing it to Game of Thrones Season 8, which is horribly mean, I know.

There were many things to enjoy in book 3 for sure, as I did blaze through this in two sittings. Unfortunately, the author and I had different ideas with how we wanted to see the characters and what we wanted to see in this book, and therefore, again, I am heartbroken and devastated. I feel Kaner didn't really give me any breathing room to deal with the emotions before the final page. ๐Ÿ˜‚

I don't mind huge sweeping events like what we find here, but I feel they were poorly executed and therefore ruined my experience. There seemed to be a lot of time and emphasis focused on specific things that I feel could have been used to explore other things instead. Some characters were finally introduced and yet were not used to their potential in this installment that it almost felt like there could have been a fourth book instead. Part of me is copium that we will get one, lmaoo.

I received a review copy for free via Netgalley, and am voluntarily leaving my honest thoughts. Many thanks to HarperVoyager for the opportunity!

I am distraught.
