Buried beneath a pile of books.
Review for the whole series
Everything in the end comes crashing down. Dalliah remains the bad guy all the way to the end but, questionable. Was it right, what she did? To cause destruction and harm to everyone so she can reach her goal in finding peace in death. Should Kate prevent the fail of the veil or not.
Everything leading up to the end is play out nicely. Kate ends up making the veil fall, going against what goal was to began with. As Kate find more about the veil and Dalliah's goal, the more things become grey.
Characters: 5/5
Plot: 5/5
Writing: 5/5
Total: 15/20 = 5 *stars*… (mais)

Full Review
Right from the beginning the action starts. There is hardly any down time to take a moment of what just happen.
The world building is not grand but, the city of Fume has this mysterious dark atmosphere to it. I want to explore the secrets that lay hidden. The book doesn't have a map so your left with hint to what the world looks like. That fine it leaves more room to the imagination.
The magic system is interesting. Center around the world between the living and the dead. I like how people's belief are based on the Skilled being able to see in to the vile.
Because the story starts with action there no room to get to know the MC before the plot takes off. Kate doesn't know much about the Skilled. We learn along with her to make it not seem like info dumping.
The overall tone in the book dark, wintery, and melancholy. With the talk of death, it almost depressing.

Better than the first book. I like the alternate point of view between Kate and Silas. The World is expanded and more about the continent reveal.
The ending, I'm almost lost for wordsSilas and Edgar are almost killed. Well Silas can’t be killed, but my favorite character Edgar. Silas struggles to save Edgar or leave him dead. Showing how they don’t like each other. The first book does a great job at that.
What I don’t like is story ended before it became good to great.
Points:
Characters: 5/5
Plot: 5/5 – The plot has become more solid and knows where it is going.
Writing: 4/5
Bonus Points:
1 – Improving from the first book
1 – Having a more powerful villain
Total: 16/20 = 5 *stars*… (mais)
