Just a little longer in this ephemeral dream... Half a month has passed since Chtholly and the other faerie soldiers departed for battle, but they still have yet to return.

But once Willem and Tiat arrive, they hear news that the faeries' decisive battle against the Beasts ended in failure, and there's still no sign of their return...
So after my stumble with book 1, there was enough to check out the next volume. Alas, for me, I believe that will be the end of my WorldEnd reading. I am in no rush to go get more. Even though once again the latter half of the book was more interesting, I am just not feeling it enough to warrant spending the time to find these and read them.

Enough.
