"No. He was not here to wreak revenge.
For revenge was trifling and hollow.
No. He was not here to retrieve his wife.
For his wife was not a thing to be retrieved.
No. He was not here to negotiate a truce.
For a truce suggested he wished to compromise.
The boy-king spurred his black al-Khamsa forward, its hooves kicking up a storm of dust and debris.
He was here to burn something to the ground"

This book was wonderful from the beginning to the end just like the first book. I was going to give it 4.5 but with that shocking plot twist, I had to give it a 5. Everything about the whole series from the characters,plot and writing style was so beautiful and I'm so sad to see it end.

Edit: The more I thought about it today,I think it deserved a 4.5 instead of a 5 due to the fact it was still some things I feel like wasn't wrapped up..
