Make sure you have read Shadow's Claim and Lothaire recently. There were a number of threads from those stories in this book that I'd completely forgotten and having the backstory fresh in my mind would have helped. I was a little blindsided by how things turned out with Aristo but wouldn't have been if I'd read Shadow's Claim more recently. I was confused by stuff Lothaire, Morgana, and Nereus did or had done in the past because I just hadn't read it recently. The pacing at the end of the book was not as tight as Cole usually writes, and the last 100 pages dragged. But the characters were likeable and their love believable and the antics of Nix always entertain. Another terrific addition to the IAD compendium.
