Love how the time skips are handled!

Another amazing book by Selkie, and not to mention the amazing performance by Andrea!

Something that really stood out to me, is how the common issue of time skips are dealt with in this series. I love how, due to the many immortals (or nigh-immortals), as well as the well-defined premise of such people living slower, more methodical lives, make not too much change throughout the years of the book.
Not only does this serve to advance the plot in a realistic time frame, but it gets the characters that are less important to the plot out of the way.

A good part that subtly shows this in Elaine's POV is when she meets Nyx for the second time, saying that it only felt like he was a kid "3 days ago."
This serves to give a good insight into the mind of the immortals of this book, and how Elaine has become one of such in mind as well.

Overall, another amazing book in the series! Wish it was longer, but hey, that could be said for them all.

Okay Installment In The Series

I have really enjoyed this series and was looking forward to this book. I really have to say, I'm disappointed. The performance was excellent, as always, but I found the story, or stories, lacking. The book leaps forward in time over the course of a number of short stories that are connected through Elaine. While they were good stories, they always seemed to end just as interesting things were happening. This book could have been a 10/10 if it was about twice as long and expanded the stories more. As it stands, the book is a 6/10 installment, leaving you wanting more in the end, unfortunately not in a good way.

This book stands out

This is a strange entry in the series. The book is covering a lot of ground over a very large slice of time with little snippets from the time that’s racing by. It’s still a wonderful book, but it’s a little different than any of the earlier entries. *Spoilers and speculation going forward.*

It’s perfectly under stable as its setting up the next major event of the series that’s been building up since book 6-7, the Immortal war is gonna kick off and we needed to know that in these decades that a lot happened that was important and fulfilling in their lives before everything changes again.

10 out of 10

I love this series, and this book balances being good in and of itself and really setting up the immortal war arch. I am soooo hyped for this upcoming book (hopefully books). I absolutely loved the formorian last stand and this has that same feeling to it. It has had multiple books laying the ground work, and I am going to be checking for the next book religiously.

To the moon and relax

A more relax book, skipping through time as Elaine continue her life. Oh and she goes to the moon with her wife. Less action compare to other series with only a somewhat quick action with some elf. Its still entertaining to explore the world with more to come.

Setup and Short Stories

This entire book is set of short stories that bridge across 50 years right up to the start of the immortal war (book 14). Each story is enjoyable and well written but the book as a whole is on the shorter end compared to previous volumes. The timeskip are handled WAY better than the last one was no unresolved issues or rug pulls this time just an immortal experiencing time pass them by.

y so short

only thing that bothered me was how short this was compared to all the other books but still a good book has a recommend I love this series or probably be another book out there after this one

A wonderful wrap up to the slice of life arc

I enjoyed getting to see Elaine get to enjoy her life!
Now back to fast paced excitement!

really just a filler time jump

while the book was well written and performed the whole book seemed like it was just a way to time skip again nothing really happened. oh and the cliffhanger really?! finally something is about to happen then bam the end

Filler, filler and more filler

So if you skip this book an just go straight to the next one you will have missed nothing, all you would need to know is that more then half a decade passes, nothing really happens, not even any meaningful conversations or character development, even tough this book actually represents like 75% of our main characters life. So not only is it a short book that have content of little meaning or point it is also a source of major dissonance for anyone that has lived a bit past their twenties.
