While this book is definitely a bridge to book three, it’s so well written and expands the world that Godkiller started. The magic system and gods are explored so much more and the characters go through some intense shit and grow a lot. We also get some characters that had pretty small roles in Godkiller get a much bigger role in Sunbringer. 

There were times I felt the pacing was a little off, particularly in the middle, it felt a little flagging and I found myself a bit antsy. Towards the end it became clear that there’s no way we’re wrapping this story up in this book and I’m glad it’s a trilogy because if it was wrapped up quickly with a specific person being killed it would have been so unsatisfying. 

One super random thing but I noticed kind of a lot of typos and missed words that took me out of the story. For a traditionally published book that’s lowkey yikes.
