This book doesn’t jump the shark, it has simply added so many sharks that it is impossible to keep track of who’s doing what and so one inevitably finds oneself passing over one. I ploughed slowly through a few chapters, furrowing my brow in a vain attempt to work out what was going on, but gave up. Shame as I enjoyed the previous books.

Not on the same level as the first three. Can be summerized as "Let's kill him! No, let's not! Moralize, moralize, we're better than that!" Rinse and repeat.

First, my review, then it’s time for a new copypasta:
“This was a fun book. I am glad that I read it. You should try it too.”
I am not a bot even though my reviews are identical. Of course, that is what a bot would say trying to pass itself off as human. But I would argue that trying to pass as human is enough to at least qualify as a reviewer.
I enjoyed this book, so my goal is to promote it and help the author. I am not going to share my reasoning, thoughts on the book, or any opinions that would influence your decision to read it. It is my opinion that Art needs to be experienced at an individual level. You are the only one that can determine what you like and don’t like. Don’t let others make that decision for you. You should definitely read the book and completely ignore all of the reviews. Or not if you don’t think this book is for you. That choice is all yours and the beauty of art appreciation. You are a much better judge of what you will like than anyone here.
As always, I am open to debates and arguments, but also vain enough to seek acknowledgement, so feel free to roast me or applaud my efforts. Either is acceptable, because if you are paying attention to me then you are at least considering the book. And THAT my friends is exactly why you see my comments here.
Cheers

Who the hell ends a book halfway through a reveal?
The book had a strong buildup and an intriguing central mystery, but the ending didn’t work for me, like, AT ALL. It stops right in the middle of a dense info-dump just as we FINALLY start to get answers hinted at since book 1. I don’t think this was a structural oversight, it feels like a deliberate choice, but choosing to end mid-exposition left the narrative feeling abruptly incomplete. It wasn’t a cliffhanger that built anticipation—it just paused the story in a way that made me feel more disconnected than curious. UGH
Despite this bad ending, this book gets a higher rating than I've given all previous installments, cause otherwise it was quite solid.

I received a review copy of this book.
Well, all I can say about this book is that if you haven't been reading this series, you're missing out on a first rate story.
The depth and breadth of the story just keeps growing, and now, at the end of this volume, we find out some rather important things about the world in which the story takes place, and if you're following the series, this is most certainly one book you don't want to miss.
Things are coming to a head, and the next book promises to be an epic conclusion, (or maybe just an extension of some epic tale telling).
Either way, I don't plan on being left out, so I'm keeping an eye out for more books in this series.

The fights are always the same. They are to fast. They hurt him and then he turns around the fight at the last moment.
The helper in his brain is always screaming about looking out for dangers that’s always to quick for him to react and so on and so on.

this one is annoying trash, I was tempted to stop reading any further with this one.
