Helpful Score: 6

This is is the continuation of the story of what happens in Doppleganger. A lot of theory and questioning about the witches beliefs occur. There is a lot of upheaval in the customs of the witches because of Miryo and Mirage, and not everyone agrees with what happened. While most of the witches now believe dopplegangers should not be killed, many believe them to be abominations and disagree. A faction of witches leaves the witch stronghold of Starfall and attack it from outside. War amongst the witches begins. I thought that illustrating the frustrations of both sides in the war was a huge strength of the book, but the writing lacked something. I think the emotional ties between characters felt a little off, and while the writing was very solid, it needed more of that bonding and relationship element between the characters to add depth and give it kick.
