   No current Talk conversations about this book.  BreePye | Oct 6, 2023 |    ) fuzzipueo | Apr 24, 2022 | I find the authors insertion of the plot to be irritating. Isn't it time to have an entire novel of Alec and Seregil setting into their estates? There were no conflicts between the characters, I miss the clashes between Thero and Seregil. The plot might have been okay if it wasn't about exactly the same as a previous book. I loved the world building and new land we got to see. I didn't like that two main characters has almost the exact same name. I didn't like the kid. I spent a lot of this book just wanting to get to the end. This series started out strong, and the first three books are great, but now they're just mediocre fantasy. Think I'll just read a summary for the next books. (  ) BrielM | Mar 1, 2022 | This is the seventh book in the Nightrunner series, and unfortunately seems to be the last. That being said, it was still great to read. Alec and Seregil continue on with yet another adventure that includes danger, as well as the "special skills" that they both have. I don't want to say too much so I don't spoil the plot. I have enjoyed each of the books in this series, and am sad to know that this may be the final book in the series. The afterword Flewelling left did contain a hint that there may be future short stories, or possibly more, but at this time, this should be the final story. I don't know if I should feel teased or upset. (  )1  Ralphd00d | May 4, 2021 | ) wetdryvac | Mar 2, 2021 | no reviews | add a review

The governor of the sacred island of Korous and his mistress have been killed inside a locked and guarded room. The sole witnesses to the crime--guards who broke down the doors, hearing the screams from within--have gone mad with terror, babbling about ghosts . . . and things worse than ghosts. Dispatched to Korous by the queen, master spies Alec and Seregil find all the excitement and danger they could want--and more. For an ancient evil has been awakened there, a great power that will not rest until it has escaped its otherworldly prison and taken revenge on all that lives. And only those like Alec--who have died and returned to life--can step between the worlds and confront the killer . . . even if it means a second and all too permanent death.

What a fantastic finish to a series I came late to, but will always love fiercely for the courage it showed in normalizing what is generally othered. This installment was fast-paced, action driven and absolutely satisfying as a final period for the series. Definitely read it. And when you cry to, drop me a line and tell me about it! (
