Finally finished this reread! It took me a really long time but I enjoyed it. I noticed convenient plot resolutions and infodumps much more than I did 12 years ago when I read it first. But it this time around I actually liked the ending, it made sense. The part I liked 12 years ago I still liked a lot. I am now ready to read Murtagh, which I bought last November omg. Excited for the continuing story and curious to see the author‘s growth.
