In the conclusion to the trilogy that Publishers Weekly called “a roaring—and addictive—gothic world,” Eleanor Fitt must control her growing power, face her feelings for Daniel, and confront the evil necromancer Marcus...all before it’s too late.
He took her brother, he took her mother, and now, Marcus has taken her good friend Jie. With more determination than ever to bring this sinister man to justice, Eleanor heads to the hot desert streets of nineteenth-century Egypt in hopes of ending this nightmare. But in addition to her increasingly tense relationships with Daniel, Joseph, and her demon, Oliver, Eleanor must also deal with her former friend, Allison, who has curiously entangled herself in Eleanor’s mission.
With the rising dead chomping at her every move and Jie’s life hanging in the balance, Eleanor is convinced that her black magic will see her through to the bitter end. But there will be a price. Though she and the Spirit Hunters have weathered every battle thus far, there will be consequences to suffer this time—the effects of which will be irreversible. And when it’s over, only some will be able to live a strange and ever after.
Susan Dennard will leave readers breathless and forever changed in the concluding pages of this riveting ride.

My Stance:
So while this book came out yesterday, I will wait to see if I can get my hands on a signed copy. I needs it to complete the signed collection. Frankly, if I can't I will still pick it up, Susan Dennard just took my breath away with Eleanor and how she interacted with Daniel. I wanted them to be together and while I haven't read the second I am still in hopes that it'll happen. I need to get to the second book, it's on a high priority since this book is out already!
Frankly what I love the most about this book is the whole 1900s aspect, old elegant style mixed with zombies and sci-fi. It's a great combination that I wish some people would take and add their own twist to it. It's this originality that I find intriguing and fun to read. Strange and Ever After will be great, and while I anxiously await to see if she's coming to Anderson's sometime, I will fantasize about this book for a while. Is that creepy? I hope not.
