Yet as Sigrud pursues his quarry with his customary terrifying efficiency, he begins to fear that this battle is an unwinnable one. Because discovering the truth behind Shara’s death will require him to take up arms in a secret, decades-long war, face down an angry young god, and unravel the last mysteries of Bulikov, the city of miracles itself.

I'm glad I finish...Read more
It took me a lot to finish this book and at times I thought to just DNF it... The worldbuilding is beautiful and the characters are compelling but I was quickly loosing interest in the story.
I'm glad I finish it though... the ending was perfect and sad and important and almost tempted me to give this book 4 stars instead of 3.
I still don't think City of Stairs needed sequels though.
