I love Grier. She is strong, compassionate and level-headed. Sure she will kick your ass to protect those in her circle but she isn't afraid of sharing her plans and asking for backup. I find it all rather refreshing given the norm for this genre is the complete opposite. Yes, Kate and Mercy I am looking at you! I love the dynamics of Greir's friendships and the growing relationship with Linus. Before this story ends, she will be betrayed and will need this circle of friends.
Edwards does a wonderful job of building the world and peeling back the layers of her characters. The magical and supernatural world has a familiarity but Edwards brings some refreshing elements. I love books featuring necromancers and Grier has unique abilities we haven't even scratched the surface of. It is those elements that making her a desirable target.
All the new threads wrapped up nicely and I loved the romantic development. Overall arc threads saw twists leaving us with a cliffhanger. I am eager to see where Edwards takes us next. This review was originally posted at Caffeinated Reviewer
