This book has been sitting on my shelf (physical and virtual) since 2015. As the third book of the series, it picks up right where you left off in Shadow of Night. While I was engaged throughout the book, there were moments that were faster than others and once you enter the final third of the book, it’s full steam ahead. I appreciated learning more about vampire politics and seeing Diana finally own her identity as a witch. It’s a great ending to this trilogy though part of me wants more. Guess it’s finally time to watch the BBC series: A Discovery of Witches!
