Casket of Souls by Lynn Flewelling

4.0

One of the first novels in a while to be placed primarily back in Rhiminee, it's a pleasure to see ourselves reunited with Lord Seregil and Alec of Ivywell as well as the Rhiminee cat. It's a politically heavy novel that throws a conspiracy at us, treason, cabals and a mysterious plague on the side.

While on one hand the re-emergence of so many side characters is a pleasure, trying to keep all of the political players sorted was nearly impossible. It was hard to emphasise with families torn apart by traitors when we were introduced to them a handful of chapters again.

That said, much appreciated return to form after the heaviness of the last two books.
