this was extremely entertaining and I even found myself cracking a smile or softly laughing from time to time. Absurd and genius and simply a very welcomed book.

Not a bad book, at all. Back to what Lynn best does, dragorgos and dyrmagnos and dark magic. I give it only 3 stars though because the book is really centered on Klia, Thero and Mika and, as much as I like their characters, I'm here for Seregil and Alec. I missed them during a big part of the book, and that is a big no for me.

Still, good book, great entertainment. I hope she does write more about them in the future, because the nightrunners have been with me for many many years, and it's sad to say goodbye.

This was campy and fun and I had a good time and it would have been 4 stars probably BUT.


SPOILERS BUT NEEDED SPOILERS



The dog is killed and it's cruel and it gets remembered more than once and I am weak and that's a line that messes everything up for me.

2 stars because the writing is good, but lords wth was this. I love smart books, I love satire, I love this kind of setup and plot, but this was insufferable. Others have put it more eloquently than me, but yeah. Abhorrent.

I didn't want this book to end. I've enjoyed it immensely. It's funny, witty, and original. A big social and human criticism written in an accessible and youthful way, with a super sarcastic and charismatic main character that I couldn't avoid but adore.

An easy read, no complicated battles or too detailed descriptions, just emotions and consequences.

Loved it, really. So entertaining.
