Complicated alliances and feuds paired with mythologies both original and Arthurian make this third time-slip novel (The Eighth Day; The Inquisitor's Mark) challenging to navigate. Thirteen-year-old "Transitioner" Jax works with sisters Addie and Evangeline to defeat the Kin, defend everyone against the Morrigan, and cope with powerful ancient treasures. Salerni satisfyingly ties up most loose ends but leaves room for more sequels.
