3rd Read: 5/26/2016
2nd Read (1/27/2016) This series is so good, and is just as interesting and engaging the 2nd and 3rd times reading it. This book was an interesting departure from the first two as it wasn't so completely focused on Meg, but on the bigger picture of what is happening in Thaisia. Plus, it had lots of Simon, Henry, and Tess.

I love this series, it has a little bit of everything and a unique mythology and characters that I love spending time with and getting to know better.

A lot happens in this instalment and I don't want to give anything away but I am glad to see The Others sharpening their claws and teeth in order to retaliate. It's not all sunshine and roses and there are still some plot threads dangling, however I am eagerly anticipating the next book, so much so that I ordered it before I finished this one.

I have loved this series from the get go. In the book world of fantasy, this series is certainly a stand alone, there really is nothing out there like that. Anne Bishop herself has written some of my most favourite series, series that I will go back and read again. This is the 3rd offering in The Others series and whilst I loved it, I didn't connect as much as I did with Written in Red and Murder of crows (my favourite of the series so far). It's left me hanging...from a very weak branch. I'm lo ...more

I'm well aware of what this series lacks. It asks the reader to suspend all of their disbelief, stuff it in a box, and forget about it. Humans = stupid poopyheads since they fail to get they live on sufferance. Others = a cross between doggos and bloodthirsty beasts. Meg and Simon = Ross and Rachel at glacial speed. Repetitive prose about color-changing hair = All. The. Time. Plot of this book = unrealistic since it doesn't align with what has been going on in the first two. I mean Meg has been

A good book and an obvious set-up book for what is coming next in the series.
