4.0

You can tell almost a decade went by between the previous book and this one was published. There are some continuity mistakes and a time jump where nothing seemed to change.

I liked going into this without reading the summary as it kind of spoils a twist that turns the book's direction. It's darker than the previous ones but not as graphic as Stalking Darkness.

I wouldn't recommend waiting long after Traitor's Moon as some of the characters mentioned there are still relevant. New characters are introduced and some threads are left open for the rest of the saga.
