The Evanligne story was fine, better than Cal and Mare's. I have been quite vocal about my disdain for her but that's because the author made her do stupid things for the sake of the plot. Her feelings for Maven were not really romantic as they are trying to imply here. She clearly felt more for Cal always. I don't think why he is so dedicated to her. I like Maven and Cal better than I like Mare though. I do understand why they separated and why she saves Maven in him. They are brothers and they will always have similar traits that would remind someone of the other. I really liked how Cal buried Maven with his mother and gave him a proper burial because he loved his brother regardless of what his brother had done. That part really got me. The Fire Light story was honestly so boring because they were going over strategy and since even if this universe continues I do not want to read it. I know their story has not ended but the author might make other stories like she did with Ash and Ly- chick that I do not remember and honestly I wasn't feeling them. I'm not talking romantically but as characters. The timelines and all that are interesting but I never saw any maps because I was listening to the audiobook which I heard at 3 times speed because I just wanted this story over with. They are together and everyone is going to continue this war and all that. They did tell it does end sooner rather than later. I'm just not into the character as I was.
