4/5 stars? 4.5? 
 I'm still kind of reeling from all these revelations. Even though I kind of suspected (okay, I had probably unintenionally saw some of these spoilers), it was still nerve-wracking to actual read them on the page as they were being figured out. Especially that last chapter. Chills, man, chills. 
 I'll write out a more coherent review when I've fully processed it. 
 But let me just say this, I still don't see how Dorian and Chaol are supposed to be each other's closest friends... but then again, they don't seem to have much other friends to really judge that.
