Review of 'Salute the dark' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Cracking climax to the series (although more books are planned this one does at least close a number of threads). In the interest of avoiding spoilers I can say no more, but this book has consequences in abundance!

Not 100% sure on the chronology of the various threads - but that didn't detract from the unfolding spectacle. A splendid achievement.
