Each installment of the Elantra series leaves me breathless as I wade through the complexities of Kaylin's life while she juggles her job in the Hawks, her friendships, her loyalties and her need to understand what's going on despite warnings to stay clear.
This isn't light bedtime or beach reading... but if you've been following the series you know that by now. You struggle through the pages along with Kaylin, following her through the confusion, grasping for meaning and truth. Kaylin's stubborn nature, along with her innate loyalty to family, are what keep her moving no matter how frustrating everything is, and ultimately everything rests upon her shoulders.
Ultimately it culminates in something far beyond the characters' ken, stretching Kaylin more than ever and expanding the borders of reality far beyond anything known or even suspected; she must rely on intuition, despite the commands of the Emperor, the knowledge of the Arkon, the wishes of sentient buildings or her small and squawky familiar.
She has to understand why, and to do that she must understand herself too.
