3.5 stars. Just as page-turning of a read as the other books, but I felt this one was a bit slower, and some parts felt a bit too neat for me. Also not a big fan of the cliffhanger ending - BUT, fortunately I have book 5 to read as soon as I want! I’m still a Keefe fan, even if it is an emotionally damaged Keefe. I just wanted to give him a hug ...

Der Titel des Buches sagt echt schon alles. Ich habe von Anfang an nur darauf gewartet, wer es wann sein wird. Aber damit hab ich absolut nicht gerechnet. UND ICH BIN NICHT OKAY!!!
Ich liebe es wie sich die Geschichte entwickelt hat und ich bin echt so happy wie sich die Welt erweitert, da durch das die Gruppe nicht in ihrem zu Hause und an der bekannten Schule waren, hat sich die Welt doch nochmal ausgedehnt.
Und ich mochte auch total die neuen Charaktere, die wir kennenlernen durften, besonders Calla und auch die Zwillinge (von den beiden hoffe ich, dass wir sie noch öfter sehen werden.)
Es war auch wirklich schön mehr von Della zu sehen und sie ein bisschen mehr kennenzulernen. Ich habe mich jedes Mal gefreut wenn wir wenigstens ein paar Krümel von Edaline oder Grady bekommen haben.
Verrat ist wirklich das große Thema in diesem Band und mir schwirrt immer noch der Kopf von allem was in den letzten paar Kapiteln passiert ist. Ich muss unbedingt wissen wie es weiter geht und wie das wieder gerade gebogen werden kann. Denn ich geb IHN eindeutig noch nicht auf.

The german titel of this book is "The Betrayal" and it says everything. From the start of the book I just sat there waiting for who and when. But I didn't expect that at all. AND I'M NOT OKAY!!!
I truly love how this story evolved and I'm just so happy to see this world grow, since the group wasn't in their homes and didn't go to the usual school, the world just expanded a bit.
And I truly enjoyed meeting so many new characters, especially Calla and the twins (I truly hope we get to see more of these two.)
It was also great to have a bit more of Della, and to get to know her a bit more. I was super excited for all the little Edaline and Grady crumbs that we got.
Betrayal truly is the topic of this book and the last few chapters still have me dizzy. I just need to know where we go from here and how we will come back from that. Cause I'm not giving up on HIM.

I forgot how angsty and annoying Keefe is in this one...
Here are my notes on Neverseen, and note that there might be spoilers for this book and others in the series:
- (5) Dex's feet are smaller than Fitz's ... it's not relevant at all, but it's a thing
- (9) Alden really sent out a 6-year-old boy into the human world to search for some obscure 4(?) year old girl
- (43) Not Sophie stopping to talk about Hitler
- (56) "...and I'm sure you've heard how valuable Alvar has been to the Council" ... who's gonna tell 'em?
- (99) I hope Sophie realizes she isn't special for reading the entire encyclopedia by age 6 because I read two entire animal encyclopedias by the same age
- (124) How many tires did it take Keefe to take the oath? He never says, but he claims he got a message, so I assume he got it eventually unless he lied
- (146) So if cognates are, like, basically married in a sense, does that imply that Quinlin was third-wheeling with Alden and Della? Or was Della the third wheel?
- (198) Why would a Psionpath be dangerous?
- (221) Gisela couldn't have recruited Jolie because she only joined the Neverseen after she got pregnant with Keefe (15 years ago), and Jolie died/got recruited 17 years ago ... so it would've had to be Umber or some other secret woman
- (234) Why did Gisela want Keefe to be a Conjurer?
- (242) I'm starting a deep voice counter because so far, Keefe, Gethen, and Tiergan all have deep voices from what I remember, so here: Timkin is #1
- (303) So if Forkle had been Sir Astin all along, has he always played the role of a star teacher guy? Literally why?
- (314) I'm surprised that the Neverseen hasn't recruited a Beguiler yet because that could be SUPER powerful ... although I wonder if that and mesmerizing even work on Sophie because she's probably too special for that
- (317) Terik and Alina were the only two mentioned to help sedate Prentice, so either one of them could have applied that sopradine ... I have my suspicions of Terik because he tries to be so close to Sophie, but Alina would be so cool on the Neverseen
- (318) Why is Terik so sweaty at the prisoner exchange? Because he was carrying Prentice (who Tiergan holds like a baby, by the way), or maybe because he knows he did something wrong?
- (356) Deep Voice #2: Wylie (it's also intense)
- The theory about the Elvin world being a dystopia seems more and more true because they have the ability to help all the humans and they withhold it because of some old grudge
- (374) Also love how Dex's inception day is in 3 weeks, and someone better celebrate it or else (update: no one noticed or cared)
- (394) So Ruy was in Ambi, meaning he's indecisive and also thinks outside the box
- (470) Keefe probably just hates Tam because he reminds him of himself
- (474) Tam = fruity (implies Sophie isn't his "type")
- (481) Sophie notes that Terik looks ashamed of not knowing how this plague started, and she assumes it's because he and the Council knew, but what if it's actually because he's evil
- (492) Ruy's parents were the ones to turn him in to the Council; he got expelled at level 4 (14) right after he manifested; he is considered "irredeemable"
- (495) Blur apparently knows some technology stuff
- (515) Why can't anyone leap to Slurps and Burps ... because in book 1 Edaline and Sophie had to walk, and now they're walking again
- (532) I can't imagine that Vociferators are in high demand ... what good does someone who can make loud, ugly sounds do?
- (540) Terik shouts, "This is madness" at Fintan.. could he be playing good, or maybe he's genuinely confused as to why Fintan is revealing himself (if he's not familiar with the Neverseen's plans)
- (552) Ruy was still going to Exillium when he was part of the Neverseen (he was a part of it when Keefe was 5 or 6)
- (562) Not Alvar pretending not to know who Ruy is
- (571) Not Alvar flat-out teasing Forkle about how he knows where their hideout is
- (579) Why DID Lady Cadence loan Sophie her markchain?
- (596) Why was Dimitar just sitting in his throne room waiting for them?
- (621) Alvar was the youngest EVER to enlist in the Neverseen ... and he also throws Ruy under the bus here!
- (660) Alvar is worried about Ruy being alone at the hideout and doesn't want to be late
- (672) Is Magnate Leto Forkle's true form? Because he undoes his ruckleberries to turn into him
