Nice read, a fun fantasy novel. I was going to give a slightly lower rating, as the story was slow in places, and some of the characters were annoying or typical or had annoying aspects, but there were some nice twists at the end that you felt coming but just could not see the shape of except in hindsight. That was very well done, and the world building was also improved from the last book; the world feels less (but still a bit) like its just the main city and a surrounding wasteland that could contain anything.
RIP main characters getting no-divorce-possible forever-married

Moderate: Rape, Sexism, Sexual violence, and Gaslighting
