Publisher's Weekly Review

This epic conclusion to Harrison's long-running Rachel Morgan series (after The Undead Pool) brings Rachel and her allies together for one final world-saving adventure. Rachel has found a way to reunite Cincinnati's undead vampires with their souls, but that creates a schism between those who want their souls back and those convinced it's a bad idea. With her best friend's life at stake, Rachel pursues a desperate gambit that soon escalates into a war to decide the fate of the everafter and the futures of the demons, vampires, and elves. Harrison pulls together many threads established in previous installments, including Rachel's long-simmering love/hate relationship with former enemy Trent Kalamack. The magical escapades are plentiful and profound, as Harrison goes for one final shake-up of the status quo, and they lead to a satisfying ending for almost everyone involved. A Rowlingesque peek into the future offers some last-minute surprises, and should be enough to satisfy any fan who's followed Rachel's journey from its beginning.

Library Journal Review

Day-walking demon Rachel Morgan has made an astounding discovery that will upset the power balance in the world. The souls of undead vampires are not gone but trapped in the Ever After, and the vampires want their souls back at all costs. The elves want to release the souls, hoping that the master vampires will commit suicide when they regain their souls. The demons hope to use this as an opportunity to leave the Ever After. Rachel has (finally!) gotten together with former elf leader Trent Kalamak, but the two are right in the middle of the power struggle, and Rachel's guilt at the sacrifices that Trent has made so that they can be together is eating away at her. VERDICT This is the final volume in Harrison's beloved series (after The Undead Pool) and there are a lot of loose ends to tie up, most of which are dealt with quite satisfactorily. Series fans will love the high-stakes action and will be anxious to find out how it all ends for Rachel.
