Although she learned early on where she could discover the Fallen Star's secret, it took her an incredibly long time to actually make an attempt at finding this. Tella's investigations frequently got derailed. While a majority of the story was just build up to an admittedly exciting climax, it still felt as though everything was just being too rushed. The pacing of the novel this time also felt a little off. Magic this time is mundane and practical - used to hurt or even torture and not carrying the beauty of the first instalment. There is no Caraval this time around - little sense of magic or whimsy. The novel had more in common with Legendary than Caraval, yet I still felt the loss of the magical settling more this time around. While I've never been a huge fan of this series, I was still disappointed to find that this was the weakest instalment of the three.
