Finally some movement!

Progression in previous books was kinda slow... I understand it was world building, and character development. But dang it took a while for the main character to advance meaningfully. Best book so far! Definitely recommend series.

Not really a story

it's fine. Generally it is quite good and follows about what I expected, but with the amount of time skipping that happens, it's more of a summary than a story. I don't mind that, when the time skipped isn't particularly notable, and wouldn't make for good storytelling, but it's used so heavily in this book that it kind of feels more like book 2.5 than 3. it's also kind of hard to relate to any of the characters when the time skips are things like "4 years after completing the trial", and are just used so casually.

overall it's still good, and I will get the next book, but it feels a bit rushed.
