Dreams of Gods & Monsters

Emotionally satisfying. I have enjoyed the ways the world is almost a trope that Taylor subverts each time.

At the end, I have a few quibbles. First off, the fourth book is missing and largely jammed in here in ways that stuck out. The whole Eliza angle should have been introduced around the same time Razgut showed up in earlier books. Why present the idea that the Stellians are blood drinkers and then never address it again? Lastly, ending with Karou instead of with newer successes felt less impactful - something more like Melanie Rawn did with the Dragon Prince series.
