If you’ve already read Gideon and Harrow and you’re ready to continue ruining your life, read on. If you are neutral-to-positive on most of those and ready to become way too invested in a bunch of gay dirtbag necromancers (affectionate), then please go read the first two and c’mon back. Secondly, if you’re new to the series, consider how you feel about the following: (If you read them in order, you still won’t know who anyone is, but you’ll care. If you try to read out of order, you won’t know who anyone is and you won’t care. They couldn’t be less capable of standing alone if they were drunk on a pogo stick. If you’re new to the Locked Tomb series – well, actually first of all if you’re new DO NOT START HERE. No, but seriously, these books are heavily defined by the Vibe(TM). “But AJ,” you’re probably saying, “if you don’t talk about what happens in the book, how will I know if I want to read it?” Or, to use the tagline Carrie suggested for this review, “I have no idea what’s happening, but in the best way.” The plot of this series is a giant Gordian knot where each new revelation changes everything else you think you know, so you really can’t discuss any part of it in isolation. That’s because, and I’m not exaggerating when I say this, every single event is a spoiler. Okay, so first of all, I need us all to understand that I’m going to write this review without telling you much about what actually happens in the book. Theme: Amnesia, Dark, Dystopian, Mistaken/False Identity, Slow Burn
