Speculative Fiction

A Triumph of Souls

The final installment of the Catechist trilogy isn't much different from the previous volumes, other than a few twists at the end. Etjole, Simna, Hunkapa, and Alitah cross an ocean and a salt plain, do battle with a townful of demons and a forestful of undead, and make an agonizingly easy entrance into Hymneth the Possessed's stronghold. Aside from not having read the Evil Overlord List, Hymneth actually does have some character depth, though this is not really explored.

If you got through the second book and are still interested, read on - the ending is satisfying, though it remains fast and light like the rest of the writing.
