"Multiple short stories from the Scythedom- some I loved, some were just so so. "

Melanie Schmitz

"Absolutely loved each story. Was fun piecing together the time periods in which each story was told and re falling in love with old characters and new ones as well. Only complaint was there was no stories with Citra and Rowan which I was absolutely praying for but besides that this book was a 10/10."

"I reread the “Scythe” series before I tackled this book. I think it made a difference to refresh my memory of all the characters. It was really good. I was a little disappointed I wasn’t sucked right into it like I was with the series though. But it still gave me all the good feels as I was met with familiar characters. "

"Ok some chapters were what i needed and the rest were respectfully horrible. They just had no point. If they just had the chapters that were important from the other books it would be fine. "

Emily Grace

"Really fun last installment to the “Scythe” series, learning about the different characters and their pasts was very unique "
