I am not quite sure what I just read, this so definitely missed the mark for me.
I felt like the first half nothing really happened and then everything happened at once. Also what was this ending, please? I missed the Nikolai, I came to love in the first installments of the Grisha Verse but he felt like a side character in his own story. The only redeeming thing for me, besides the writing style, was the banter between Nikolai and Zoya. I am interested in the sequel and I want to see how this story will go on.
