Definitely one of the stronger installments in this series - while I wouldn't recommend this to someone new to the series, I thought this book built on existing relationships beautifully. More Rule/Lily, more Isen and his sons, and without going into too many details, I loved Arjenie and thought she was a breath of fresh air.

It's funny how you love some books so much that aspects that would usually bother you otherwise don't - here it was the info-dumping. Some scenes were pretty exclusively info-dumping sessions, but you know, I love, so Ms Wilks gets a pass.

I am a bit more meh about the Great Bitch plot arc, but having said that, I thought the book ended on a really good note and I can't wait to find out what happens next.
