A review by tien
Lost Truth by Dawn Cook
4.0
I found the beginning to drag a little bit. I think it was a combination of being 4th book (which I almost missed because I thought it was a trilogy) and because Alissa was chaffing at the bit too!
Once the story got going: Alissa & her friends went in search of Silla (the latest Raku child) and the Conclave in the expansive ocean followed by confrontations with Keribdis (wife of Useless / Talo Toecan and leader of Conclave), I got into it really easily and could not wait to finish.
The ending was bittersweet - near the end, I was distressed that it was the way the book / series would end and then with another little twist, I became very happy.
