This book took my breath away.

Zefra's life is not going according to plan. As someone who lives and breathes plans, this is particularly frustrating for her.
The rest of the characters are artfully introduced in an ever-intensifying adventure.
The four unlikely friends have rescued their world once before--plus averting a war and taking on an entire pirate armada.
Now they're facing something far more sinister. Those that aren't wounded are either risking their lives for the truth or facing execution for crimes they didn't commit. Mysterious kidnappings and murders and rumors and riots and scattered clues throw everything into a turmoil, once again threatening the stability of the entire world.
Can they put the pieces together in time to save everyone once more?

I loved the puzzle music. That made a great mystery. It was great to see characters come together from all over the series, but my favorite was Ludik. Tarakh was also a cutie. I liked Zefra's character arc.

A moving book with a strong lead female character that is full of action. There is a ton of mystery and intrigue to enthrall any reader. A very good book.
