I love being in this world and really enjoyed this entry in the series! I appreciated the way the storylines came together, the relationships building, the characters, and the overall sense of fun and adventure. Even though I enjoyed Seasonal Fears about as much as I did Middlegame, I will admit that there was a level of fun that was missing for me, and Tidal Creatures brought it back up.

For starters, exploring the lunar goddesses was such a delightful addition. I got caught up in the lore, the rules, and the ways in which they added to the overall mosaic of this world. Kelpie is also one of the cutest characters I've read in a while. I want nothing but the best for her!

If you're someone who thought that the appearances of Roger and Dodger felt forced in Seasonal Fears, they do feel more natural here. At this point, it seems to me that each book offers a building block and that Roger and Dodger continue to be central to the overall story we're telling, even if we're exploring other parts of the universe within a particular book. Perhaps knowing that will help folks manage expectations for Tidal Creatures (and I assume for the rest of the series).
