This is one of my favorites of the series thus far! The reader gets to see Poet’s past reconcile with her present, which is an emotional ride but one that really develops her character. Loa lore also becomes part of the story, which added some new depth to the overall series arc. The story that unfolds in this book is a huge part of the series story!
