I'm really torn between liking the ending and disliking it. A lot of the things I saw coming (and didn't), but in the end the relationships are what really made this series weaker than it could've been. The constant struggle between Kitsune and Dorian was so annoying and just pulled from the heroine that Eug could've become. It made her seem weak and indecisive which made her seem like a weak female lead. 
 The whole relationship with the Kitsune had been bullshit and pointless. He was already being controlled by another woman whether he wanted to admit it to himself or not. There were several evil queens in this book that really fucked with Eug. I wish after the rape from the previous books that Kiyo had been permanently out of the picture as a romantic interest. Breaking up and fighting with Dorian I could've handled better than her constant struggle over the two men. 
 Things I didn't like about the end: 
 Eug continuously keeping secrets from Dorian and deeming them "okay", but it's not okay when he does it to her? Not cool. 
 & the control the Kitsune allowed Maiween to have over him. That's just bullshit. The fact she STILL wants to attack her children also?! No.
