General Description: Zelie, Amari, and Tzain all wake up on a ship and they have no idea where they are going. The skull masked men are brutal to everyone on the ship. Once Zelie discovers the skulls plans for her society, she can't sit ideally by and unleashes more power than ever expected. How will Zelie save her people?

all the goods:
- I do feel very resolved at the end of this series, which is something that doesn't always happen with series finale books.
- Zelie's journey to power was incredible to witness and it was not easy, which I appreciated the journey for.
- Your side characters of Amari and Tzain's perspectives were extremely welcomed to give us a full view of the story.
- I absolutely loved the additional worldbuilding, but...

the loss of a half star:
-...this felt way too short. We got introduced to so much of the world but hardly got to spend any time in it! I wish it was longer!

Overall, if you've read the first two, how could you stop before the third?!
