All Good Things is the final installation in the Split Worlds series.
Cathy and the new Lord Iron–Sam–have banded together to keep her safe from the Irises as well as figure out how to bring Nether society into the 21st century. Women in the Nether are treated less like modern women and more like the property they effectively were in the Regency era.
Since the fae-touched residents live in a pocket world where time isn’t a factor, generations of Nether society have gone on for hundreds of years without aging. Social change has moved correspondingly slowly.
Sam and Cathy team up with the murderous sorceress Beatrice when she brings them a proposal that makes a lot of sense, and will change all of the Split Worlds forever.
All Good Things is a fitting conclusion to a great series. Cathy has come into her own, and becomes far less the main character who complains about her treatment and knows nothing of how to change it–and far more the woman ready to move worlds to get things done. We also see a lot more of Sam, Max, and the gargoyle–and their own great strides in character development.
The juxtaposition of Regency era society and modern freedoms mixed with magic make this an all around fun series to follow.
