Although I was disappointed by the ending, this entire series was an amazing fantasy adventure full of extremely fascinating, likable characters, high stakes, intriguing mystery and plot twists, and unforeseen resolutions! I loved all the allusions to pirate tropes that were so masterfully crafted into the story! And the sub-plot of the serpents kept me guessing till the very end.

The book is admittedly pretty slow to get going, and some early parts I found rather dull. But the book just keeps getting better and better as it goes. Few characters came out well in the aftermath of this book's most unpleasant scene – that was all the harder to read…
