Gosh I really wish Jones and Bennett would finish remembering how to write again, I only have so much patience. :< Guys just make your characters' voices distinct from one another. I'm tired of four books reading this, there's no way you're not sick writing it. Also ladies, I still want more of them. I feel like this series could benefit from one simple rule: ladies in the absence of any compelling reason this should not be the case. Toverre? Ought to have been a woman, they can be best friends instead of fiancees if their village wouldn't have been down with that. Adamo? Woman, the Dragoncorps coped because you try telling a hundred pound metal dragon they can't have the captain they've chosen. Balfour? Most certainly a woman which lends a nasty edge to the hazing the corps put her through but ehh we already realized the place was a festering copse of misogyny. Like seriously there is absolutely no reason I should have had to sit through thirteen dude POVs out of the sixteen this series have offered so far. Truly no excuse. 3 stars
