Very repetitive
While I think the overall story could be interesting, they easy it was told made it painful to listen to. I can't count the number of times she wielded the most power she could contain and how she war so tired with no energy left to then get up and basically wield even more power and then be even more tired. I think the author was trying to convey a powerful struggle, but do to the repetitive description of house massive the struggle it fell flat for me.
I tried to finish it three times, but just couldn't make myself listen anymore.
I enjoyed the first book, but it seemed the author had a hard time describing epic battles. as the power grew in the struggles.
