There are so many moving pieces and the multiple PoVs is the only way we can see what is going on at all times. Only a genius would be able to create and then implicate such a complicated plot. She is very technical when she writes, she clearly knows about spy tricks, different fighting techniques, and war strategies. She doesn’t waste time on long description paragraphs, she tells us quickly what we need to know about something, and then moves on to the action. One thing I love about Synder’s writing style is how direct it is. I’m not sure what I can say about this book that I haven’t already said about the five books before it, but here we go. I waited a long time for this trilogy to be published, but I doubt I'll wait for any more, if they're anything like this. They are whited out so you can only read them if you highlight the text Indeed she was the only thing that kept me listening to the end.

One of the few high point was the fantastic narration, by Gabra Zackman. I don't know what happened but I am so disappointed with the final three books. But in the final three books, I just wanted to kick him in the *****. Valek became one of my all time favourite male literary characters, when I first encountered him in Poison Study. The character of Valek has also turned into a spineless weed.

Unfortunately in the final three books, Shadow, Night and Dawn Study, clever Yelena has become a simpering idiot, and I seriously wanted to slap her silly, which would have been a vast improvement to the brainless bint she has become. In Book 1 of the Ixia Series, Poison Study, and the two books which followed, Magic and Fire Study, the character of Yelena was smart, competent and savvy, and I realy liked and admired her for her tenacity and courage, given everything she had been forced to endure. Snyder continues to impress with the world of her imagination. Smiles and tears, laughter and anger - Ms.

It's a wonderful second trilogy to this series and I couldn't be happier with the ultimate conclusion. All of a sudden Fisk is seventeen and Valek is in his forties (I think). The only difficulty is the eight year gap between the books (I know that the Glass series filled in some of those years, but still.). It really helps inform and round out the story, and provides real insight from characters which could only to be guessed at in the earlier books. The inclusion of the different character's perspectives was great.particularly Valek and Janco. Dawn Study is everything I have come to expect from the Soulfinders series. I've adored spending time in their world.I've laughed, loved, grieved and wept along with each of these characters and the world-wind of emotions has been wonderful. Snyder was writing a final three books to continue and conclude the story of Yelena and Valek.
