Kelly takes us on another ride through her Otherworld, this time back to the Savannah Levine, who takes her debut as a solo act here. Like many of Kelley's fans, i'd been waiting for the wiseass witchling to grow into her own story, and here it finally is. 
 The mystery elements are strong and a little more straightforward in this one, perhaps due to the setting, a small town on the edge of extinction, which leaves less room for digression. Also we have less witty banter then we get with previous novels in the series, as Savannah works unpartnered for much of the time, understandably I think as we establish our lead as an adult character who is growing out of the more outlandish aspects of her behavior. With this taken care of, we can now move on to more adult situations. 
 As others have said, not the best of the series, but is no less enjoyable, and as usual I didnt want to put it down. And as always, leaves me eagerly awaiting the next in the series.
