Set after the short story in Dreams Made Flesh and "The Price," this focuses on Surreal getting trapped by Black Widows' tangled webs in a Haunted House and the rest of the family figuring out a way to safely get everyone out in one piece.
I don't think any book will ever compare to the original Trilogy and DMF. The characters (despite a heart-to-heart talk between Saetan and Daemon) are really losing their edge. Jaenelle, always a bit of a pawn in the Trilogy, is even less impressive in this one. And my favorite, Saetan, continues to separate himself from the living. grr.
BUT the story examines an interesting side to the Blood and focuses on how the landens (non-Blood) and Blood relate to each other. Tersa has a few moments where you realize the power she might have had. Daemon & Jaenelle; and Lucivar & Marian enjoy each others...company... Surreal continues to grow up.
I was interested in how Ms Bishop explores her world more fully in each story she writes about the Realms. I found myself learning something new about all of the characters. It was enough to make me like the book, and I do recommend it to fans of the other Black Jewels books.
