also the timeskips are so bad. every POV change has whole vauge months in between where i just have to accept whatever is presented to me on page. even worse in Res where i actually like some of the side characters. Eidhin has had like 3 lines the whole book. all their convos together are an exposition dump and "and then we chatted and it felt like old times. Anway" like i dont get to see them doing anything together

Priests must not be very sacred in Luceum because they die all the time and then there are no social consequences for the people who loudly pronounce that they kill them. okok theyre in a war right now, wouldnt Gol's own side WHO ALREADY HATES HIM murder him for killing like the most sacred guy around. Theres a couple mumbles but then they just party, but we're constantly told that the driuds are holy. makes no sense

If that man Leuceum Vis saw that "looked like his father" is setting up some kind of time travel him from the future plot im not finishing this series.

I liked WTOTM for its refusal to explain how will worked bc Vis hated it so much, but that choice is only holding SOTF back. Now Vis uses will all the time and apparently does impressive things, the other characters ooh and aww, but bc i have no idea how will works the book then IMMEDIATELTLY has the explain how it happened. Clunky, slows the plot, lessens the impact of whats being done bc i only care in retrospect

Vis wants to be FitzChivalry Farseer so bad. Islington must have read assassins apprentice before writing this book because theres no way. Also every single chapter opens with "x character once told me..." Vis do you have your own thoughts bbg. Also so much time in this book has been timeskips where i just have to accept any development made with no question. theres none of the intrigue the first book had

Reusing two of the worst plot points from the first book, the fencing and the spontaneous ´challenge for his honour’. Feels like the author couldn’t think of any other way for Vis’s position as Domitor to be challenged and went with the first thing he could think of. Super dissatisfying so far, this book better start picking up soon

The POV shifts is killing the momentum like crazy. I like all three enough separately, but switching between them is a slog. Story is super vague rn, finding it really hard to get invested when I know nothing at all. The environment is way worse in this one than the last one, I’m finding it frustrating that I don’t know what anything looks like
