This was a re-read, getting myself back into the world to FINALLY read the last 3 books. This book definitely feels like where the story picks up.
I love seeing Aelin and Rowan's relationship change over the course of the book, seeing her stepping into her power, getting an iconic "who did this to you?" when he saw her scars. Rowan going from punching her and biting her (which she deserved tbh and I appreciate that he didn't hold back just because she's a woman) to IMMEDIATELY swearing the blood path to her the second he was free from Maeve?
The introduction of Manon & the witches, Rowan & the Cadre, the concept of Carannam are all so well done and I really loved getting multiple POVs with events happening concurrently in 3 different locations.
