"This trilogy is as close to perfect as books can get."—T. Kingfisher, author of What Moves the Dead Thara Celehar has lost his ability to speak with the dead. When that title of Witness for the Dead is gone, what defines him? While his title may be gone, his duties are not. Celehar contends with a municipal cemetery with fifty years of secrets, the damage of a revethavar he’s terrified to remember, and a group of miners who are more than willing to trade Celehar’s life for a chance at what they feel they’re owed. Celehar does not have to face these impossible tasks alone. Joining him are his mentee Velhiro Tomasaran, still finding her footing with the investigative nature of their job; Iäna Pel-Thenhior, his beloved opera director friend and avid supporter; Anora Chanavar, his stalwart friend and fellow prelate of Ulis; and the valiant guard captain Hanu Olgarezh. Amidst the backdrop of a murder and a brewing political uprising, Celehar must seek justice for those who cannot find it themselves under a tense political system. The repercussions of his quest are never as simple they seem, and Celehar’s own life and happiness hang in the balance.

(Received to review via Netgalley.)

This didn't end the way I wanted it to, and I'm not sure how I feel about that. I certainly enjoyed the read, and there were parts I thought were lovely, but... I'm not entirely happy about it. I thought things were going somewhere in particular, and I'm rather thrown that they weren't.

Finally getting really stuck into this. Bit surprised to find the story feeling like it is very much “no homo“ing Thara and Iäna's relationship. Wonderful to get a glimpse of Maia and Csevet.

I got so busy reading and loving THE TOMB OF DRAGONS that I never actually posted about it, so please consider this a prelude to the review I‘m still mulling over. In particular, I‘m thinking a lot about how Celehar is someone who always, always does the right thing in relation to his calling, even when it causes major problems for him, but who does the easy thing in his personal life, and how the series helps him learn to take more risks there.
