A shadow of chaos lurks in the Library’s foundational pillars—
and treachery sneaks in through unseen cracks.
Quinn's grief threatens to capsize her, but as she places each action of her team's escape from the dragon siblings under the microscope, it reveals that every fateful step they took to reach the battle resulted from manipulation.
Pieces slot together, offering a vaster web of machinations. With a stronger connection to the Library, Quinn's new perceptions uncover a wealth of new information that only serves to compound her urgency...and makes her question who she truly trusts.
Scouring her people for signs of betrayal will lead to paranoia. But if she isn't careful, it could bring her precarious restoration of the Library crashing down and the universe with it.
KT Hanna has a love for words so extreme, a single word can spark entire worlds.
Born in Australia, she met her husband in a computer game, moved to the U.S.A. and went into culture shock. Bonus? Not as many creatures specifically out to kill you.
When she’s not writing, she freelance edits for Chimera Editing, and chases her daughter, husband, corgi, and cat. No, she doesn’t sleep. She is entirely powered by the number 2, caffeine, and beef jerky.
Good God, I did not see that coming. There is no big event in this book per se, except the developments at the end of the book which set up the last book of the series. You can see all the pieces starting to move around the chess board as connections are made, motives are discovered, and a search for traitors really heats up.
I spent 3/4 of this book psychoanalyzing everyones actions to determine who a traitor or saboteur could be. I was totally surprised at the latest developments on the soul bomb. There was also no way in hell I saw that cliffhanger of an ending coming.
Normally I wouldn't give five stars to a book that was a lot of piece moving on a chess board but damn the last few chapters made up for it. I can't wait for the next (and I think final) book in the series.
Librarian Quinn learns a lot and yet still has a scatterbrain that has been vexing her (and this reader) for the series. She learns more, and has a few adventures, but there’s no big climax in this edition - except maybe for the closing paragraphs leaving us in a cliffhanger.

Quinn continues dodging attempts on her life as her enemies focus on their ultimate goals, as it's learned there are two groups wanting the library destroyed. Slow moving in parts, with some twists and revelations. Above average editing. Ready for the next book!
What an amazing ride. KT Hanna does it again. Thoroughly recommend this series. Just when Quinn thinks she has finally gotten a handle on things, something ( someone) throws a spanner in the works. Already, I’m looking for the Grand Finale.
This book was a great addition to the series, really upped the stakes. Best book in the series yet! I've been really enjoying the series overall, a good balance of cosmic revelation with bag guy fights and a few twists in between.
