Loved this book, I have missed hanging out with Moon, Stone, Jade and the others of the Indigo Cloud Court of the Raksura not to mention exploring their fascinating world. This book is a collection of Two Novellas and two short stories set in this fascinating universe. The Falling World starts about six months or so since the last book, The Siren Depths ended. Everyone is back home, only Jade and a select group of Moons favorite warriors have been sent on a diplomatic mission to open trade with another court... when the court learns they never arrived it's up to Moon and Stone and a large group that includes some of Moon's least favorite warriors (River, Drift) to find out what happened, but The Reaches, like the rest of the Three Worlds, is full of surprises. A well written and very enjoyable return to some well known characters and introductions to a few fascinating new ones (I like Bramble) as well as all the variety in creatures and cultures we've come to expect.
The Tale of Indigo and Cloud takes us back to the beginning of the story, where the two Raksura who would eventually give their names to Colony first meet, like other important couples they find the course of true love does not init ally run smooth. A fascinating glimpse of Raksura culture from the inside this time. An interesting blend of Romance, family drama, and complicated social politics, like Downtonn Abby with wings and claws. I really enjoyed it.
