Hard to put down and yet slower than I wanted it to be at the same time. The constant flashbacks to Kaylin's time in the Barrens kept interrupting the flow in places, though the tower was very well done. (

The elements are restless - which in Elantra doesn't bode well. The disturbance is coming from somewhere deep in the fiefs. Groundhawk Kaylin Neya has moved on with her life, but if she wants life as she knows it to continue for Elantra, she's going to have to face the past - and the dead - she left buried in the fief of Barren.

This series just keeps getting better. (

Sadly, this was my least favourite of the entire series. Took me forever to finish. Started in the summer, ended almost in the new year. (

Epigraph

Dedication

This is for Ayami, the sister-in-law who makes having a brother a blessing.

First words

"It's eight o'clock in the morning. Please remember to fill out your reports and hand in your paperwork." Had the cheerful and musical voice belonged to a person who could be easily strangled, it would have stopped midsentence.

"A member of the elite Hawk force that protects the City of Elantra, Kaylin Neya has sacrificed much to earn the respect of the winged Aerians and immortal Barrani she works alongside. But the mean streets she escaped as a child aren't the ones she's vowed to give her life guarding. Those were much darker ... Kaylin's moved on with her life--and is keeping silent about the shameful things she's done to stay alive. But when the city's oracles warn of brewing unrest in the outer fiefdoms, a mysterious visitor from Kaylin's past casts her under a cloud of suspicion. Thankfully, if she's anything, she's a survivor ..."--P. [4] of cover.… (more)
