Michelle's Reviews > Corambis

In which Felix and Mildmay go into exile, take shockingly good care of each other after suffering more of the slings and arrows of dark magic, mutually come to grips that being a major asshole is not a way to strengthen one's familial ties, begin legit career paths, and finally sort out their major issues without being forced to do so. If that makes not much sense even when compared against the plot blurb, well, that's because Monette seems to have written the last 3 books in this quartet as one effort, so 'Corambis' includes zero explanation or rehashing on of the prior 3 installations. Don't start here, and don't wait over a year in between book 3 and 4 like I did, because if these characters weren't so lushly memorable it'd have been hard going. But lushly memorable these boys are indeed, and it's awfully nice to put them to rest comfortably after so much struggles in their path.
