It felt like the build-up and suspense from the first 2 books were squandered. The Shadovar were portrayed to be extremely powerful enemies, yet were very easily defeated by suddenly even more powerful Chosen - too powerful. The climax and the final fight could have been more creative than a “last stand” kind of ending that's been done many many times in fantasy settings. The plot and story were superb, and it was very a nice touch that different points of view were presented in this book. It just that it felt like it could have been much better.
