![]() ![]() That kinda sounds like a slice right out of real life, no?Īnd THAT is why this book picks up not too long after the events of book 13 of the Hollows and starts back up with Return to the Hollows with nothing more than a shrug. Nothing is so impressive and amazing that others can't s**t all over your parade, deny it ever happened, or make your life a living hell just because they're ignorant and/or a jerk. We just have a new beginning with the same old characters we love.īut wait, isn't our witch (ahem) just a LITTLE TOO OVERPOWERED? Especially with that last book going NUTS with the changes, more changes, and even bigger changes? This book is proof that a well-beloved UF series with an official "ending" does not have to End. It really threw me for a bad loop both times I read it. :)Īs for the end zinger, with no spoilers, I do believe it'll be a new quest arc now that Ivy's problem and the demon's demesne issue is settled. Zombies, crappy Elves, Demons in daylight, and murderous dreamers are all pretty great, and I'm a big fan of the new magical Balance, but it's always the characters that make these books shine. ![]() Now, I just read this book last year, but it still deserves a good re-read on the heels of the rest of the series.Īnd frankly? It works as well as the rest of the series - which is to say, it's fun as hell and exciting and unfair and delicious and heartbreaking all over again. ![]()
