If Makiia Lucier ever writes an adult epic, I’ll be all over it! That being said, the tight focus of the book kept me very engaged, and I raced through this in one sitting. I really wasn’t expecting the plot to unfold the way it did – it’s a very clever mystery and one that’s woven into the book from the very start if you know what to look for.

The Hallow Essence can then be used on the altar with blue flames right next to the graveyard that has the Death King and the Gravestone. Walking up onto the altar while the Hallow Essence is in the player's inventory will summon the Soul Reaper. Strangely enough, the Soul Reaper doesn't spawn where its summoning item is used.
