**This is for the audiobook version of the title***
The narrator does another splendid job slipping into the voices and characters, although there was a change for Kracken’s voice from the first book that took some getting used to.
The third book in the House Witch series is a nice wrap up to the trilogy. The characters are more fleshed out and grow throughout the book while still staying true to their inherent nature.
With war imminent, a manipulative magical father, and his burgeoning relationship with Annika, Finn has to learn to navigate a whole new life while also coming to grips with both his own magic and his growing political position. He does this with the same warm style exhibited in previous books but has to contend with much higher stakes.
The writing in this installment was tighter, cleaner, and the pacing was better than in the first two books. The reader still gets to enjoy the company of Finn’s found family while the long anticipated hostilities with Troivak come to a head adding some heavier stakes to the adventure.
