That said, I really enjoyed this one. The quest plot is fun, and I loved McGuire's exploration of the metaphysics of Doors and world. These books are kind of standalone, but also kind of not, and some very interesting things are happening in the world(s) in this one.
It's not perfect.
Seraphina's involvement, which could've been a rich complication, turned out to be a McGuffin. I would probably read a book about her. -
I really wanted more time given to Kade's reactions to both returning to Prism and Cora's departure. I desperately want a book about him. -
Christopher's chapter at the Door didn't go much of anywhere. I'd've liked to see him have to deal with Vineta or Yulia on his own.
