This is a tome that I liked. Besides the fact that it concerns Rehvenge and Ehlena, this is a book rich in twists and related stories. The addictive side which was a bit blurred on the previous volume, returns harder. It will be more familiar with symphath universe and past Rehv, giving more weight and depth to his character. The Lessers have not said their last word and the war continues to rage. John and Xhex seek and closer. An ending that suggests a great tome 8 and an immediate need for the reader to read it. I CUT THE 8!
