This is book four in The Unconventional Heroes series. If you fell upon this book without having read the others I envy you a little as it combines the delightful genre/trope playing that the first book introduced with more development of our favorite characters, each getting more time in this narrative than previous outings. However please go back and read the wonderful earlier books in the series and watch the introductions, interactions and development of these characters.

The conflict in this tale is building with the growing threat of war ever-present and our heroes almost start the shooting war by having mediumish worse luck (for them).

The cast has grown and as the point of view swaps, what initially feels a bit of a disappointment because you want to know what is happening with the current character is soon replaced as you are plunged into the next character's narrative. The pace never lets up and my only regret is up until now I have had another in the series to immediately leap into, this sadly is no longer the case, and must wait for the talented and prolific (serious have you seen all the other series L.G Estrella is crafting WOW) author to pen the next book in this saga.
