Thankful for this morsel from Jensen to carry me through until book #4! Lara and Aren supremacy.
This is an essential novella that, in my opinion, should have been a concluding section in his earlier work, "The Traitor Queen". This addition would have significantly enhanced my view of the series. Jensen's latest piece brilliantly fills in numerous plot holes that were glaringly evident in the second book, while injecting an engaging blend of smut and witty banter between the main characters. These elements not only heighten the entertainment value but also deepen our understanding of the protagonists' dynamics. What makes this novella stand out is its ability to reinforce key themes and character arcs established in the first two books. It acts as a critical bridge, preparing the ground for the anticipated drama in the upcoming fourth installment. In essence, "The Calm Before the Storm" is far from a mere supplement; it's a vital piece of the narrative puzzle, offering closure and clarity while simultaneously setting the stage for future developments. Without it, the series feels incomplete. Jensen's skill in weaving this tale confirms that sometimes a shorter work can be crucial in tying together a larger narrative.
Was cute but very short!! Need. More. Content. But I guess I’ll have to wait for book 4
