Oracle Queen - Lynn Flewelling (Tamír Triad #3)
4/5 - feels more complete; ending is still rushed
Generally, I like Tamir a lot more in this book. She feels like she's truly a person struggling with her gender identity in a way that Tobin … didn't really. There's also some indication that she feels prolonged gender dysphoria when she sees herself in the mirror and I thought that was very well done.
The battles themselves were boring. I find myself generally weary of extended war books - after a while, all battles blend into one another.
All in all, I feel that this trilogy would've been best served by being one longer book. The character arcs would have felt more complete, and I believe readers would encounter fewer abrupt stops.
