A review by balletbookworm
Dark Skye by Kresley Cole

4.0

I'd been looking forward to this book for a long time, ever since we were introduced to Lanthe back in Sabine and Rydstrom's book and then when she's last seen being dragged off by Thronos in Carrow's book when they're all escaping from Torture Island.

This book is peak "Nix ex machina" plus lots of plot threads from previous books in the series plus "could you two please just have a damn conversation and stop being awful at each other". I did really love how the environments Cole created for Lanthe and Thronos to jump through were almost all new places within the world of IAD and that was really interesting. Also interesting was the whole Vrenkener insistence on a history that is clearly scrubbed up to erase their past.

(Jesus, I've shotgunned seven books in this series in as many days. I haven't done this with a series in years. Whew. Still got a couple to go.)
