The war between old gods and monsters comes to a thrilling climax in this final book in the "darkly delightful"* House of Furies series, from the New York Times bestselling author of Asylum. (*Publishers Weekly)
Free from the nightmares of Coldthistle House, Louisa and her friends have taken up a posh new London residence. But there's no rest for the wicked. Religious zealots from the shepherd's flock are gathering in the city, and ominous warnings are being left on Louisa's doorstep. With the evil influence of her father's spirit growing stronger—trying to take over—Louisa knows she will be forced to pick a side in the coming war between the old gods, whether she'd like to or not.
To save herself, Louisa is desperate enough to do whatever it takes—even if it means returning to Coldthistle House and striking another deal with Mr. Morningside. To uphold her end of the bargain, Louisa will have to rejoin his supernatural staff to venture to a gateway between worlds, a place of legend: the Tomb of Ancients. But, as always, there's a catch…
My Review:
This was such a fantastic ending to the series! After the ending of the previous book, I knew that it would deal with her father's powers, and the history there, but other than that, I had no clue, and I was so excited to read it!
After the events of the previous book, Louisa's situation has changed (and that was so strange for me to write, because she has the same name as me, and that never happens and I'll never get over that fact) since she has the power of her father. But of course it couldn't end there!
The whole thing with going to the Tomb of Ancients, to deal with what was going on, was very different from the first two books, it was very quick paced, which I enjoyed, different is entertaining. ANd wow, the direction that it went in!
One thing that I always want from books is a closer, to see what their lives are like after everything is done. And this book gave us a pretty excellent epilogue for that, I loved getting that peak at their future, it was really fantastic to read!
This was a really great read and end to the series, and I really enjoyed it!
