Oh Cardan, how I've missed you. It is so good to read his POV, I'm so glad we got this book. I have no complaints other than I wish this was longer, but that's it, no other complaints. Perhaps a bit more of Jude would be good too, but that's it. I like how this is more of a character insight rather than simply having scenes that we've seen before told from a different POV. Not gonna lie, I'd love to get some moments from the other books from Cardan's perspective, but I decided to enjoy what I got and it's pretty good. Also, kudos to the artist! Such cool art that complemented the story perfectly.
