This is the fifth novel in the fantasy series The Chronicles of Elantra, a series that I'm enjoying very much. For those wondering if the series might be to their taste, it has a very likable heroine (Kaylin), very likable recurring characters, strong found-family and friendship themes, intriguing magic and worldbuilding, high stakes, and some notably dark content. I note that I think the series would be best read in order, as later books build on the early ones with comparatively little recapitulation of previous events/characters.
In this fifth novel, Most enjoyable.

I liked the thread with Morse that expands on Kaylin's early years. I liked the role Tiamaris plays. I very much liked Tara and her part in the story. I anticipated a major development close to the end, but that anticipation didn't weaken the reading experience.Four out of five towering stars.
