2012: This was a great read. The detail was really good, and the story was not confusing. I enjoyed it very much.
2018: rereading this book was such a pleasure.
I fell in love with this world back in 2012, so when I finally decided to reread it, I figured I'd still love it as much. But. Turns out. I loved it MORE. Maybe it's because the book comforted me when I needed it to, but I found myself delighted with every page. I loved this book from the first sentence. If I chose to have one favorite book, this would be it.
Maybe this book isn't your genre. Maybe it is. Maybe you read it and didn't like it. Whatever the case, I urge you to take a first or second look. Try to see it with fresh eyes.
I don't even like steampunk. And yet. This is my favorite series.

As a sequal to the Emperor's Edge, this book caught my attention. It was just as good as the first book if not better.
Not as good as Encrypted, but this book was still really good. It makes for a good set up to

Forged in Blood.
How in the world can a book pull you in like this one does? It's funny, painful, suspenseful, and full of adventure.
Basic synopsis:
Chapter One: Infiltrate the train and retrieve the wooden duck
Chapter Twelve: Infiltrate the train and retrieve the Emperor

2013: A great read! This is the fifth book in the Emperor's Edge chronicles. Oh, It's a great book! The author filled it with suspense, humor, and action. It really kept my attention. I highly recommend it.
2018: General thoughts as I read this book
1. Maldynado has always held a soft spot in my heart, but getting to know him better (again) has been absolutely wonderful.
2. SPELUNKING in her CAVE????????
3. Yaldynado
4. I understand Sespian’s frustration, confusion, even hatred, but was that really necessary???????????
5. Amaranthe, you’re the gum that sticks this team together. Love you.
6. You to, Sicarius. You’re doing amazing, sweetie.
7. Sicarius never lets any emotion show, but I’m 100% sure he was being ripped apart inside during that last scene.
8. WHY COULDN’T SHE JUST WRITE IN SOME UNDERSTANDING????
This series is amazing. Please read it.
