Broken Veil by Jeff Wheeler

4.0

I started the Harbinger series and loved it. I did like book 4 although it got dark. However, the plots within plots were revealed and it looked like things were not faring well for our heroes.

Book 5 unravels the plots even more and explains the machinations within machinations, both for the Hetaera and Kishion wanting to release the Goddess Ereshkigal.

Cettie and Sera are front and centre in this book and the choices they make have ramifications, both for themselves and for the Empire of Comoros. I felt the story was rushed at times but it did bring a more or less satisfying end to this cycle in this series.

Since I started reading the series from the Harbinger series, I now need to read the other books to fill in the backstory for both King Fountain and Comoros. I highly recommend the Harbinger series, particularly if you like regency and supernatural steam-punk genre.
