After rereading book 2 and being a bit underwhelmed by it, this was a much needed return to form. It was funny, action-packed, full of tension and high stakes, and even made me tear up at the end, ngl.

There's another book (or two?) on the way and I'm very curious to see what direction Alston is steering us next, especially as this was a pretty satisfying conclusion to the story so far.
