This is the fourth book in the Bright Empires series.I just can't adequately explain how amazing this series is, and this installment is no exception to that. Just when I think there's nothing else that can happen to surprise me, I am shocked. This book filled in more of the history of the Flinders-Petrie family, and provided more information about the purpose of thr Zetetic society. I loved all the character development and building of relationships that takes place as the characters meet each other and share their experiences and backgrounds with each other.The next and last book of the series comes out in September! This is the 4th book in the Bright Empires time travel series. I read the first two and did not realize that I had not read the third book when I got this one. Once again, Kit and Mina and others travel the ley lines trying to avoid the nefarious Burleigh men and find the skin map. In this book, Cass, and her father, Tony Clarke, a physicist, are drawn into the equation. I found parts of the book to be a bit overly wordy and drawn out, but the story is a good one. I look forward to the next, and final book.
What do You think about Shadow Lamp, The (2013)?
More story progression, more interesting ideas/theories than the last 3 books of the series.

I love this series - I just wish the books weren't so expensive. Great read.

Good story, but not as great as the last three.
