Our view
“Dreadgod” is the eleventh and penultimate Cradle novel, and it raises the stakes for the finale. With the Dreadgods loose and the Monarchs wary of him, Lindon fights while his friends race to catch up; by some accounts it is more packed with action than its predecessors. Some readers finish it eager for the last book, and a little sad to be so near. Strictly for those following the series.

About the book
The battle in the heavens has left a target on Lindon's back. His most reliable ally is gone, the Monarchs see him as a threat, and he has inherited one of the most valuable facilities in the world. At any moment, his enemies could band together to kill him. If it weren't for the Dreadgods. All four are empowered and unleashed, rampaging through Cradle, and grudges old and new must be set aside. The Monarchs need every capable fighter to help them defend their territory. And Lindon needs time. While he fights, he sends his friends off to train. They'll need to advance impossibly fast if they want to join him in battle against the kings and queens of Cradle. Together, they will need power enough to rival a Dreadgod.
