This instalment of Kat's journey takes place amidst the Guardians of Gottsilse. Discovering aspects of who and what she is comes at the expense of others.
Cronshaw knows how to tell a story. The series is well written and grips you from the start. You will continue your own version of the story but Cronshaw will lead you down another route.
Definitely worth reading.

Kat arrives at Gottsisle, a place steeped in ancient knowledge and quiet mystery. Instead of facing an external threat, she’s pushed inward, forced to journey into herself, confront the secrets buried in her dreams, and rediscover who she is after the trauma and transformation of the previous books. Much of this episode revolves around introspection, identity, and the search for meaning, all framed by the tarot archetype of Temperance, which symbolizes balance, healing, and integration.
Kat’s time in Gottsisle’s ancient library becomes a catalyst for self‑reconstruction. The danger here isn’t physical—it’s emotional, spiritual, and deeply personal.

This is the installment I’ve been waiting on; Kat begins to get answers to questions she has had along the course of the series. The source of the answers came as quite the surprise, and now it raises the question as to the cost to Kat for gaining these glimpses of her past and the answers to her questions. I’m now primed and ready to read the next installment. I received an Advance Reader Copy and chose to provide this review.

Our MC takes more steps towards recovering what has been lost to her, leaving me wondering how this will all play out. Factions I envisioned as good or bad...totally fall somewhere grey until everything gets disclosed. A reborn, wiser, strength seems to be surfacing. With just one more episode available, hoping I don’t discover myself waiting for more releases. All my reviews are always voluntarily written.

This is a fantastic series that has grabbed me right from the start to finish. It has me on the edge of my seat when reading and definitely a page turner, I definitely recommend.

Remembering the past.
Red wants to see her past, so she will be able to move forward. Interesting, hopefully the next book is more exciting.

Twisting tale, that keeps you at the edge of your seat. Again, more truths are revealed, but still not quite enough.
