YA
To save her beloved Varen, Isobel ventures once more into the dreamworld of Edgar Allan Poe for a final confrontation with the demon Lilith that will decide not only Varen's fate but the world's. Pacing issues break up the tension and drag out elements to the detriment of characterization, but series fans will be happy with the trilogy's conclusion.
