I was a bit surprised at the start of this book that we have switched main characters, from Lew and Alec, to Will and Fenn. Changing protagonists in the final book of a series is always a risky move, but in this case it absolutely paid off!

The developing relationship between Will and Fenn (to call it just a romance feels like a disservice) is the emotional heart of this book, and had me invested from the very start to the final moments of the book. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: A. L. Lester knows how to create characters and relationships in just a few lines that many authors struggle to create across a whole book.

The paranormal mystery aspect wasn’t as strong in this book as it was in the previous one, although I didn’t mind so much given the strength of the character arcs. I think if you’re reading this one to discover the conclusion of the big fight you might be a little bit disappointed, but if you’re here for the characters you definitely won’t be!

Once again, there was excellent narration from Callum Hale. He’s particularly good at being Will, so it was a very immersive listening experience.

I received a free copy for review. All opinions are my own.
