The God of Lost Words

Praise

“The plot of this final volume has its exciting twists, but the real payoff is Hackwith’s complex characters…The character development throughout the series, the polyamory and queer representation, and convincing fears and desires all combine to make characters that feel real, and that will earn readers’ full investment.”–Booklist

“Hackwith suffuses this story with love in many forms, deep thoughts on reading, and variations on reality…It’s the perfect finish to this inventive saga.”–Publishers Weekly
