Re-read - April 2021: Totally agree with everything I said in my original review. Love Alex and loved the mystery - Mr. Jacka always has a way to create this exciting plots that keep you at the edge of your seat the whole time. And there's always so much danger! No matter that I knew he would win at the end, I had my heart in my throat. Also liked with everybody looking at Alex to take the lead. A harbinger of things to come!

Persistence is paying off with this series. Alex is very slowly becoming more appealing as a hero and the growing cast of secondary characters are interesting. From the beginning I've enjoyed the myth-building behind this series. It makes sense and is different enough from everything else to make it feel unique.

I did like the book but I wish the author focused more on the creepiness of Fountain Reach, that he built up the atmosphere more thoroughly, and that he showed more of the Big Bad. Because that creature was spooky as hell and it felt very underused. On the other hand, I really liked the addition of Anne and Variam. I hope we see more of them in the future. I like that Alex is building up a make-shift family.
We are really traveling down the Dresden road here. Each book just keeps getting better. Loved this book.
3.5
I didn't enjoy this one as much as the first two but will definitely continue reading the series. I like that a team is starting to form around Alex; with Sonder ( Saunder? I'm listening) in the lead as my favorite. ...more
