The plot twist at the end was pretty predicable, but I did

feel horrible about Nehemia's death. I don't really like that the only POC in the book is killed as character development, however. And if Maas had killed off Fleetfoot as well, I WOULD HAVE committed felonies.

However, this still just feels like every basic fantasy series from the time period and I don't super understand why this series is regarded as the best of Maas' work.
