The book ends with a lovely image, full of possibilities. I won’t spoil how it all turns out, but I was very pleased to see this story arc stick the landing in every way. I can’t imagine a better resolution for the spooky spirit and their new friends. The resolution to the plot thread involving the demon’s name is heartfelt and has a deeper meaning that ties into the themes of the series. Well, it’s as soft as it can be, for an entity that feeds on the living and gets its kicks from causing mischief. Astrid and Noa finally have the conversation we’ve all wanted to see, while the demon also shows its softer side. The betrayal seen on the face of one of the cultists when the main villain’s plan is revealed adds a whole new layer to what could have been a group of faceless enemies. Even so, this issue is bursting with fantastic character moments, even from some of the smaller supporting players.
