(spoilers) my favourite book from the trilogy. The first few chapters are reeaally boring. For me, the book began when they escaped the underground. And it really started getting exciting when they got to the spinning wheel.It had quit a lot of (small) plottwist. As for the characters: Mal still sucks. He's still annoying and jealous ALL THE TIME. Honestly, when he was revealed to be the third amplifier, I almost screamed: finally, let him die like a hero and end it. Well, he died. But came back. meh. Alina. She confused me, really. I like her but sometimes I really thought she's the villain. Nikolai: Perfect as always. Saved their asses multiple times. Idk what to think about him and Alina, I felt like they were really good friends but could also be more. It broke my heart in thousand peaces when he was turned into the monster. I feel like it was a really good way to show us just how serious it all was, because we have our all confident privateer who always seems to have a solution and in the next moment he seems helpless. Also his interaction with Alina was super emotional. The Darkling: I think he got his perfect ending. He died as a boy with too much power and greed, not as a villain. The others: I like Tolya and I love Tamar. Zoya is still Zoya, but she really gets likeable. I'm kinda sorry for Sergei. We don't see much of Nadia but Adrik is a cool new character. Genya... She made a mistake, she paid for it, she learned from it. I still like her. David is quite a funny character. Extra: Tamar and Nadia so cute *-* but also Genya and David :) Now to the ending and why it disappeared me: 1. It was unlogical af I didn't understand half of it. Like are there now new Sun Summoners instead of Alina? Or was it only temporarily? 2. Way too happy. Mal should have died and I'm not only saying this bc I don't like him. It was just way too unrealistic that he somehow came back from the dead. Also: Alina and Mal now own a orphanage. And no-one recognises them? She has frickn white hair and is probably the most famous person in Ravka. Anyways, I loved this book.

Spannend, magisch, mitreißend

Finaler und brillianter Teil der Serie. Ich konnte das Buch nicht mehr aus der Hand legen. Evtl war ich kein Fan des Endes, aber ich glaube das ist Geschmackssache.
