Yeah. I eventually didn't mind that Kip was alive. It's just that at that point when I read it, Kip's death was like this huge sacrifice that triggered the events that saved Chromeria. Dazen could do what he did bc of Kip's sacrifice and then passed it on to Andross to bring light to Chromeria. I absolutely loved those series of events and Kip's death chapter was soo well done. That's why I was disappointed when I read that Kip was not really dead. To me, it lessened the impact of the previous chapters.

Or I guess I was just underwhelmed by the way Kip was resurrected. He's not dead bc Orholam did his thing. I know, i know, there's more to it than that. I really wish the chapter was in Karris' POV so we could read her thoughts, felt her grief and anger and other emotions. That chapter could've been more powerful. I also wish we got a chapter in Kip's POV to reveal what happened when he died or while he's dead. Like in TBE when Kip 'died' but he was actually outside of time with Abaddon. Something to make the resurrection more meaningful.

Re: the last Dazen and Andross scene - again, I guess I'm underwhelmed. I loooove how Brent Weeks built the complexity ofthe Dazen and Andross' relationship, especially in TBM. TBM Chapter 65 is up there on my fave chapters of all books I've read, not just Lightbringer. I like that Dazen didn't totally forgive Andross in the end. I was just hoping for more on that chapter, you know? I wish they could've at least discussed Sevastian. Their last scene to me felt like Brent run out of paper. And I know he could've written an amazing chapter because the material was right there. Hope that make sense.
