A Court of Wings and Ruin Review

5/5 stars Recommended for people who like: fantasy, Fae, final battles, scheming, magic I will say, this is a much better finale book than KoA was set up to be. I adore both series, and actually like ToG slightly better, but this book was a better length, had more action, and definitely had a better, more realistic final battle than KoA does, which I’m surprised about since this one came out first and therefore Maas had time to write the KoA ending, but whatever. That aside, there’s obviously the issue that no one really *important* dies in the final battle. Like, you have all these people and a lot of them are old and they’re pretty much all certain they’re going to die and they just…don’t. I don’t want any of them to die, but it is unrealistic, though again, I feel it works out better in this book than in KoA. We don’t really get a huge view of the land in this one. We peek a bit into the Autumn and Winter Courts, and we get the view of exactly 1) palace within the Dawn Court, but that’s it. Most of the information we get about the rest of Prythia in this one comes from meeting the other High Lords. They’re definitely an eclectic bunch, but the way they were all characterized makes me wonder why they weren’t working together previously. Like, they all (save for Beron and Tamlin) seem to be on pretty decent terms with one another and aren’t overly hostile or aggressive. Considering everyone there is at least a little bit of a politician, it just doesn’t make strategic sense to not have firm alliances in place from before Amarantha. Having no alliances post-Amarantha makes more sense considering everything that happened Under the Mountain, but while there was a mention of friendship and previous cooperation between the different Courts, I didn’t get the sense that they’d actually solidified anything like they did in this book. Representation is a bit better in this book. We get to see more people and women of color, and they’re not just around to die. ACoMaF had some black characters from the Summer Court in it, and Amren has always been coded as Some Asian Ethnicity, but ACoWaR does a better job of having more characters of color in a variety of different roles. Likewise, we get introduced to more gay characters, but it’s definitely a more periphery acknowledgement than anything. One of the High Lords has a male lover who is his captain (power imbalance?), another High Lord is the stereotypical horny bisexual, and then there’s a story Azriel and Rhys tell Feyre about a flyer in Drakon’s aerial legion who did an impressive feat and also happens to be a lesbian. [ Also, Mor comes out as being bisexual? (gay?) it’s not entirely clear which she is, but she’s still in the closet with just about everyone but Feyre. (hide spoiler)] So, better representation, but still not great. So, Feyre’s back in the Spring Court and is up to some serious shenanigans. She doesn’t stay there for more than 10 chapters (which is about the average for books like these, actually) and then she’s back with Rhys, the Inner Circle, and her sisters in Velaris. A lot of her growth in this book is about coming to terms with her newfound status as High Lady, where to draw the ‘friend’ vs. ‘High Lady’ line when interacting with her friends, and where to draw the line with her powers. Her character is definitely one that mostly got settled in the last book and as a result, most of her attention is focused on the plot and driving it forward, which is nice to see. I think it’s actually Rhys who does a lot more growing in this book than anyone else. He seemed like he was in a better place than Feyre was in ACoMaF—whether he was is a different story, but what we were shown says he was in a better place—but in this one, we get more of a glimpse into his trauma from Under the Mountain and from the recent spat with Hybern, and even a little of his trauma from the past war. There are some lowkey, very casual suicidal ideations that I pick up that are disguised as self-sacrificial behaviors but that definitely reek of that kind of ‘I wouldn’t move out of the way if a car was coming’ sort of passive suicide. Other than that, we get to see Rhys letting his guard down more around people outside the Inner Circle and we get to see a lot of his interaction with the other High Lords, which was funny to read. In terms of the Inner Circle, the focus is on Azriel a lot more in this one. In ACoMaF, he sort of took a backseat while we got to know Mor, Amren, Cassian better (in that order), so it was pleasantly surprising that we got to see some quality Azriel and Feyre time. He’s gentler and funnier than he seems, that’s for sure, and despite everything, he comes across as having an extremely gentle soul. Mor goes through a lot in this one, a lot of wounds are placed out in the open and she has to figure out how she wants to or not to deal with them. Suffice to say, she’s a lot less cheery in this one, though that spirit is still there. Amren is as cranky as ever, though like Azriel, we get to hear more of her past and motivations for certain things. Cassian is mostly his usual self in this one, maybe a bit more snarky since Nesta is around full-time, but mostly business-as-usual. In terms of the other Archeron sisters…Nesta and Amren definitely fit together. Both are traumatized after the ending of ACoMaF, but to say Nesta is taking things a lot better than Elain is an understatement. Nesta was built to withstand tragedy and still remain standing long enough to take down her enemies. While she’s cold, distant, and a little cruel for a lot of the book, toward the end she starts showing cracks in the façade. Elain, on the other hand, is more like the flowers she loves so dearly—strong in many ways, but wilt and get trampled under the wrong circumstances. Elain hollow for most of the book, struggling to reconcile everything she’s lost since the ending of the previous book, and trying to adjust to the new world and life she’s found herself in. Out of all three of them, Elain had the most to live for and the most to lose in the human world, and it shows itself in her reaction to the changes occurring with her and her life situation. Tamlin is obviously in this one. Uh…not sure how I feel about this. He get the start of a redemption arc and I just…I can’t roll with that. After everything he did to Feyre in ACoMaF, everything his actions led to at the end of that book, the result of just all of his recent bad decisions, there’s just no way to spin that into a redemption and make it believable. To be fair, Maas did not make it believable, so there’s that. She tried to make it more realistic by having Feyre and Rhys say they believed Tamlin was trying to spy against Hybern rather than ally with them, but….again, it just doesn’t make sense despite Feyre and Rhys having plenty of reasons to not believe him. So, as helpful as Tamlin is in this one, I just don’t buy his innocence. Lucien was in this for a bit too, though not for all that much time. He’s mostly around to 1) realize what a dick Tamlin is, 2) realize that the Night Court isn’t so bad, and 3) to gather allies for the war from the human side of the world. I guess he gets some character props for being Elain’s mate but it’s just another thing that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me (right up there with Tamlin’s started redemption arc). Not related to Tamlin, but belongs in the redemption arc section, Eris starts to get a bit of one himself, albeit less of one than Tamlin does. There are just some hints he may not be the asshole everyone things he is. I think Maas needs a little help writing her endings/final books, but it’s a decent book overall. As already mentioned, I think this ending is much better than the KoA one, and the plot is more plot-driven than battle-driven, which was nice. I enjoyed seeing the development of Nesta and Elain, as well as the introduction of characters like Vassa and Bryaxis. I do wish we got a bit more downtime with Rhys and Feyre like in the last one, but I don't think it was possible without making the book border on 'too long.'

As a heads up, the review for A Court of Frost and Starlight is going up this Saturday instead of next Wednesday like usual since it’s technically a novella.
