DARK BEFORE THE DAWN
As Gu Mang's mind continues to deteriorate, he and Mo Xi set out for the prefecture of Lin'an, hoping to find a legendary sage with the ability to summon Gu Mang's missing souls. Chances of success are vanishingly small, but Mo Xi is unwilling to give up any hope of restoring his beloved to health.
Upon arrival, however, Mo Xi and Gu Mang find no such fabled sage, but a familiar face--Murong Chuyi, who has arrived with the rest of the Yue Clan, including Yue Chenqing and the estranged Jiang Yexue, to complete a perilous blood ritual. What begins as a chance encounter soon turns deadly as Mo Xi stumbles across one of the clan's darkest and most deeply buried secrets.
Volume six of Remnants of Filth was quite a roller-coaster ride, with so many secrets and twists revealed. There was plenty of action in this volume, though I was sad to see what happened to one of my favourite side characters. *sob* The book certainly set things up for an epic finale, which I hope to have time to read this week, so look out for my wrap-up review of the series in a few days' time. As always, this volume was nicely presented and accompanied by a great set of illustrations. This is a series you do need to read in order, so for anyone newly coming to it, definitely grab volume one first. I am giving this volume 4.5 stars.
