This is another gripping tale that sees the Hunter trying to catch the Sage before he can get to the lost city of Enarium, a place he also desperately needs to get to, to find a cure for the Irrsinnon, which Hailen is starting to suffer from again having left the relative safety of Kara-Ket.

As with the previous books, this one moves along at a brisk pace, with plenty of violent brutal conflict that culminates in an emotionally tense climax to the story.

We finally get to learn more about the Hunter's past, along with the Abiarazi, Bucelarii, Serenii and Elivasti as this tale unfolds and the truth about Enarium is revealed. It also sees a few of the Hunter's old acquaintances make a reappearance as he travels to Enarium.

This also brings together many of the plot threads from the previous books to a stunning conclusion, but it also creates new ones which promise interesting possibilities for future books.
