MY THOUGHTS
“Love was the destroyer. It made mourners, widows, left misery in its wake. Grief and love were one and the same. Grief was the shadow love left when it was gone.”
It is the last book of Grisha verse (as many sources claimed). I don’t know how to properly review this book. It was supposed to be that mega closure, with everything fixing in their places. I read KOS just last month and enjoyed many parts of it. It’s been a day since I’ve finished it and I still can’t process the events properly. It took me around a week to finish it because it didn’t keep me hooked. It wasn’t boring but the pace definitely was the fun killer. I really liked the first part of the book. You can literally see all the gears in the brains moving, all the plans of political tactics. So, we’ll get to see a final war.
“Of course, Nikolai was the liar here. But kings did what they wished; bastards did what they must.”
Spoilers start
Spoilers end
There were so many tracks and enough of them were boring. I skimmed a good chunk of it. The ending didn’t try to windup thing, It felt rushed and big holes and question marks were just there. The last chapters were so disappointing and the last two line. When authors will learn to stop stretching their successful books.
“Maybe the gift of being human is that we do not give up- even when all hope is lost.”
