This episode is just as good as the 4 before it. I start to like Lirium more every episode and every episode there is something new we learn and the world get's darker every book it seems and still I keep hoping for a happy ending.

The story continues around a week later than where episode 4 ended. At first the pace was a bit slow, but then there where some revelations and twists that made me want to keep reading. Some things I didn't expect and people who Inever thought about being responsible for the mess Lirium is in. The author is great in making me suprised every episode.

A character that really develops in this book is valec or maybe it's just that we learn more from him, so much more. And it makes me understand a bit why he is the way he is and I actually think he isn't a bad person either. Ofcourse there is also more about Lirium we learn, there is this scene at the end that's just written great. Lirium is such a strong character and I start to like him more every episode, he is so different from the main characters in other books and I like him.

There again is some world building, but again only little pieces. It does make the world come alive more every episode, because every episode there is something new to learn.

To conclude: I loved this episode! The story started a bit slow for me, but after that it got so good. I liked learning more about Valec and every episode I like him more, he is such an awesome character. I can't wait for the next episode, because one thing is sure I have no idea where this is story going!

So, I'm not sure what else I can say about this serial. Each episode is so great! I have my favorites and the ones I think aren't as good, but overall I just love it. I am in love with Lirium and I want to meet him. I'm not liking Ophelia so much. Lirium really needs someone to trust and I'm not so sure she's it! She has betrayed him and she made me mad! I am ready for him to have some romance to be honest, but I can wait if it's the kind that's gonna make him happy! And the story just keeps surprising. I never know where it's going to go. I never know what kinds of turns it's going to take. And I love that. I want it to be unpredictable. It's totally fascinating and keeps me on the edge of my seat for sure! And I'm even liking some of the "bad guys". That would be Valec. He's an ass but he's got some good qualities. And I have some sympathy for him for what has happened to him in the past (at least what we have been told so far).
I'm once again chomping at the bit for the next installment. Quinn has not disappointed yet!
