Never disappoint!

It's a great story and it explains so much of some passages on the previous books. I read some reviews where it was said that there were holes in the plot line but I believe that if not intentional (as cliff hangers) this book covers a lot of the "unexplained things", specially regarding her 6 month absence between the fifs and the hawks. Get it! You won't be sorry! I can't wait to hear the next one. I could probably read it because they are available in print but it won't be the same as Khristine Hvam brings so much to the plate and delivery of the story.. so I will patiently wait (sighs)..

Language is very disappointing!

This series has been great up until this book! I'm sad to say that the introduction of a character from Kaylin's past disrupted a great story with awful language. Some language can be tolerable if the story is really good, but the F-word is most definately not! I have already purchased the next couple of books in this series & I am afraid to find more disappointment. The character Morse says the F-word almost everytime she's introduced in the storyline. It's very sad to find a great author & then find that they turn to such inappropriate language in their books as they become well known.

I liked this narrator, Khristine Hvam, very much & was disappointed to hear her use such language. I search for books by narrator to attempt to avoid the books I find inappropriate & of course because of their talent. So, this really was a great disappointment. She's really a very talented narrator.

It’s time I admit to myself that I love these stories!

I was intrigued a decade ago when I first discovered Michelle Sagara’s flights of fantasy. However, life has a habit of interference in my spare time, until recently. I’ve been binging the series, in order from the first book, over the last year. A good portion of my daily routine is now consumed happily in listening to these quality stories, and I’m eagerly looking forward to the next, and the next, etc.
Thank you to the author and the narrator for making this trip so enjoyable.

Great book!

I really like this series. I enjoy the characters a lot- they're well written. This book sheds some light on what happened to Kaylin after she left Nightshade. Hvam does a great job, she's become one of my favorite narrators.

another winner

great story line, an extremely charming and a bit exasperating heroine, and a FABULOUS narrator make this story ( and those before in the series) very enjoyable.
