We do learn a lot more about chi and paryl in this installment though, which is really nice because the other four books focus on the main colors in the spectrum and give us very little information about the outer-spectrum colors.
This book has a lot of talking about drafting but not a lot of actual drafting in the beginning. There was less drafting and character relationships and more planning and “important conversations.” I remember having so much fun with the first four books in this series when I read them earlier this year, but this book didn’t feel the same. The beginning of this book had me feeling like it was much bleaker and more political than the other books. I am very conflicted about my feelings for this book because what we got was great, but there was also so much that we didn’t get that we needed, and that was the biggest detriment to this book, sadly.
I would still 100% recommend this series, but know that this conclusion will not answer all the questions you’ve gathered up throughout the five books and will leave you wondering why certain details weren’t included in the narrative even though their answers felt necessary to the story. It was good, very good even, but the ending left me wanting more and disappointed me for a few reasons I’ll talk about below. This was my most anticipated book of the year.
