Returning to 'Raybearer' in audio format before diving into 'Redemptor,' it was just as good as I remembered. The story is exceptionally paced and the characters are complex but lovable. This is a world and a group of characters that I care deeply about and though I didn't remember every moment, I remembered a great deal because Ifueko has created memorable characters and poignant moments. I'm so excited to start 'Redemptor' though I don't want the journey with these incredible characters to end.
