Goodreads Synopsis:


WHEN ALL HOPE IS LOST

For Shiva’s sake, another life must be sacrificed. Teacher thought he had steeled himself to commit the deed, but perhaps some lingering trace of his humanity stilled his hand. Unable to harm others, he realizes the only recourse is to instead sacrifice himself. But what remains once the soul is gone?


Review:


Things take a drastic turn for the worst in this volume.

When Teacher sees just what's happening with Shiva, he makes a sacrifice that no one knew he had the option of, and it completely changes his status as outsider. It changes things for her, too, since suddenly he's not the teacher she knew, and everything is thrown in motion when they're attacked again. Shiva is forced to do quite a bit of growing up, here. It's a lot for her to take.

I don't have any idea how they're going to recover after this, and it's apparently going to be a little while for another volume. I'll be waiting anxiously.
