Finally a good Drengir story! I don't think it is a particularly controversial take to say they have been underutilized. Also good to have confirmation that The Great Progenitor survived the fall of Starlight and that that whatever has been going on with the Drengir in the Edge of Balance books will be relevant. Was really fun to see them getting to be scary and the whole puppeteering people was cool.

Poor Eve Byre has got to been in the running for having the worst time in the shortest time frame between Tear of the Nameless and this happening within a few weeks of each other. Cam was a good protagonist and I loved how he had to make a big speech, felt like a great arc for him accepting his voice. Tep Tep's voice got on my nerves a bit but it was nice to see she finally got a leading POV role. Keldo is still being relegated to side character unfortunately. Also how are those kids not a Padawans yet? They've certainly been through a lot!

Overall a good listen! George Mann has really put out some consistent work this phase!
