Love this series!

Dabos' third book, and it just keeps getting better and better! Excellent narration which really gives character to each person.

MC blunders through the whole story.

Writer creates a lush world with interesting abilities and cultural artifacts; however, although the main character literally has the potential to be incredibly powerful (i.e., she has dragon claws and can animate inanimate objects), she NEVER intentionally uses her abilities to solve problems that her powers should have let her readily overcome. She blunders through the whole story.

No idea where this is going

2+ hours into the book and I am still quite confused. Too much going on with little explanation or cohesive story line- plans and people just seem to randomly show up and disappear. Liked the first 2 books of the Mirror Quartet, which is why I downloaded this one. Disappointing.

Delightful

I love how this series is a blend of mystery, fantasy, and awkward love story. I only regret that I have to wait for more. Truly an enjoyable listening experience.

Weak link in the series

The first two books in this series are wonderful: a unique premise, fast-paced, many and diverse characters, multiple story lines, humor, affection, and unexpected turns. This third volume does not live up to its predecessors. There are almost no characters other than Ophelia. The story is slow and not particularly engaging. It's missing color and and verve, humor, and true affection between characters. Ophelia does find Thorn, but they are unable to connect emotionally. I still believe Thorn is either autistic or has Asperger's Syndrome. The search for God is necessary to the story arc but has become boring. Will I buy the next volume? Yes, based on the merits of the first two books. Will I buy a fifth volume? We'll see. It's time to wrap up this series.
