I found this instalment of the series became a lot darker and more serious than the first couple of books as we start to learn a lot more about the Soul Eaters and the history of Torak’s father. I also loved hearing more about Torak’s experiences spirit walking, and his developing relationship and trust of the Raven clan.

There was of course the classic thing with these books of issues being resolved by pure luck,

especially towards the end when Torak and Renn were rescued

, but other than that, these continue to be very enjoyable books that I look forward to coming back to.
