Diviner Alex Verus finally made one too many enemies on the Council of Mages, and now one of them is angry enough to have him executed. Fighting for his life is nothing new, but this kill order also calls for the death of Alex's dependents - and there's no way that he'll let Luna, Anne, and Vari take the heat.

With only a week before he's history, Alex will have to figure out how to disassociate himself from his friends, scrounge up allies on the council, and hopefully keep his head attached to his body. But saving himself is going to bring him into direct opposition with his former master and the Dark mages surrounding him. And this time, escaping with his life might mean losing his soul....

The seventh novel in the ALEX VERUS series sees our favourite Diviner finally run out of time. When his enemies put an execution order on Alex, he finds himself making desperate choices to keep himself and those he loves alive. 

Alex is pushed to the limit in this novel, with tempers flaring as he does everything he can to keep Luna, Anne, and Veri safe. Seeing Alex and his friends fight to think through every obstacle was as exciting as ever, especially when the circumstances felt insurmountable. 

The stakes could not have been higher, the action was thrilling, and the drama led to an exciting ending. I’m very excited to see where this series goes next, since Alex is in more danger now than he’s ever been before.

Tense and Exciting

not my Favorite Verus book. It became clear to me that this book served no purpose other than to sell the next book. It started promising , the same great world of Mages and spells and wards.

But then nothing after, Alex had no redemption what so ever, just chapter after chapter of Alex being stepped on, and in the end.....nothing....i am so tempted to get the next book because i am so unsatisfied with how the story ended. But i am resisting because i am so Angry at where we ended this book

Frustrating
