Sirana emerges with three of her Red Sisters from the Deepearth to witness searing light. Vast lands beyond their comprehension await them. In uncharted wilderness, Sirana and her Sisters must seek their missions. They cannot refuse them. With little knowledge to aid them, they must move beyond each other's reach. When Red Sisters have no demons but each other, can they survive being split apart?
Etaski's fantasy world breaks wide open as the Sister Seekers epic rises to the next level. Beneath an unforgiving sun, webs dissolve into dreams, and scattered shards of dark history wait to be picked up and pieced together.
Etaski writes DnD-style Epic Fantasy with expansive worldbuilding and large casts. We start with an Abyssal underground city, dark and disturbing, gradually moving out into the light. Interconnected plots and tones weave through character discoveries, where they sometimes learn from their mistakes. Found Family is a core theme throughout her world.
"Sister Seekers" begins with an isolated race of Dark Elves in "No Demons But Us." Perfect for fans of entwined plots across multiple books, mature and challenging themes, and immersive worlds which include strong elements of horror and the erotic. We explore sexuality and inner conflict with nuance, intrigue, action, and fantastical magic.

A much rougher read than the previous books, but since it's tackling a whole new setting and plot I can understand why it feels rockier. The world-building and character growth for Sirana in this book were phenomenal. I loved seeing how the new setting was different than the one we've seen in the last three books and how hard it was to adjust for our main character.
It began slow paced while it set the tone, then it REALLY rapid-fires information at you in the last 20%. There were so many PoV swaps so quickly, and so many new plots were thrown at you it felt really rushed like the author almost ran out of time for all of it. I'd love to have seen some of this spaced out so it could feel natural instead of like an info-dump.
During the bua PoV scenes I almost gave up. I understand it was supposed to be out-of-place and dreamy stuff but man, it felt SO out of place and maddening. I know we're not meant to know who or what is happening and it's trickling us information for the future but it felt really distasteful with so much to remember while also being thrown a ton of new unrelated info in such a short amount of time.
The new mage character is very interesting and I look forward to their plot development. What the heck is going on with their master though, that was really strange.
Also there's so much winking. Why is everyone winking???
Moments of brilliance in a bad acid trip of confusion
I've been anxiously looking forward to this book since I started this series. Unfortunately, this book is the most confusing and error-filled of the series so far. This book was so different from the others (other than multiplying the mistakes of the previous books) that it almost felt like it was ghost written by another author. I really hope the final book in the series redeems it, as things are going downhill fast! It should be redeemable with moments of brilliance interlaced along the way in the messiness that gets us to this point.
I loved everything about this book. The friendships, the effects of the sun, the battles. I care about these characters and look forward to what they are going to do and where they are going to go next. This was a great book in an amazing series about the Drow. I originally bought these books as eBooks but now I am buying them all in paperback to put on my bookshelf of the best Drow or Dark Elf novels. A.S. Etaski writes great literature that inspires me to write more too.
I can’t wait to read the next one already! This story is becoming complex and incredibly interesting and exciting! Not as much sex in this one but it doesn’t matter as the world building/characters and plot are more than enough to keep you thoroughly sucked in!
It's wonderful to follow the exploration of unfamiliar lands as new companions and adversaries are added to the tale. Will she find the help she needs for her quest and more importantly what she needs for herself and the ones who depend on her.
