For now, the Fiend's been bound. Grimalkin, the Witch Assassin, has the Fiend's head and she is ready to take on anyone and any creature that may try to retrieve it.The narrator of the series has always been Tom. It's his view that has been in the series until this book. It's what I'm used to and so...
What a ride this series has turned out to be! I had held some minor reservations at first with the narration shift, but this was quite evidently Grimalkin's story to tell and it was the best choice.

So...I was looking back at the books I'd read this year and to my surprise there was no review for this book. So of course I have to put this little snippet in here. This is the ninth book in the series and:a) The witch assassin Grimalkin uses her dark magic a few timesb) She faces a foe she can't d...
