Rating: 5 out of 5

In the Prologue, you'll find yourself being immersed in a dark, ominous scene that features the Necromancer and the Black Waziri. Scott is back at his old self when he teases the readers by titling Chapter 1, "Finally." You're left to wonder if he is making fun of his audience who is undoubtedly wondering "where are Leeza and Rave?" or if he is foreshadowing what will come in Restless - will Dominic and Leeza find themselves at battle with the Necromancer and the Black Waziri? If so, who will be left standing at the end?Restless has many story lines and themes that are expertly interwoven. By putting the characters we love in intense situations and enlightening the audience to their inner conflict, they became more realistic and more relatable. Many of the new characters we meet in this book turn out to be heroes just by "doing the right thing". Even if Restless is the darkest of the Blue Fire books, it's complexity would lead it to be an excellent book club book for pre-teens to adults.Scott hit "it" out of the ballpark this time around!
