After enduring unspeakable horrors as a child, Yrene Towers has no desire to help the young lord from Adarlan, let alone heal him. Yet she has sworn an oath to assist those in need—and will honor it. But Lord Westfall carries shadows from his own past, and Yrene soon comes to realize they could engulf them both.
In this sweeping parallel novel to the New York Times bestselling Empire of Storms, Chaol, Nesryn, and Yrene will have to draw on every scrap of their resilience if they wish to save their friends. But while they become entangled in the political webs of the khaganate, deep in the shadows of mighty mountains where warriors soar on legendary ruks, long-awaited answers slumber. Answers that might offer their world a chance at survival—or doom them all . . .

Yrene and Nesryn carried this book. I can't stand Chaol. He is unable to take any sort of personal responsibility for anything. Literally everything is Aelin's fault. Even blames her for stuff happening on a different continent that she has no control over!
I want more Nesryn, Sartaq, and Hasar going further. They have such fun interactions with everybody that I want more character development out of them.
I definitely recommend the tandem read, as I mentioned in the EOS review. Though I did abandon it 75% through because I wanted to plow through the rest of EOS.
