"Holy Grail Artifact" Series: Lost Soul City

Clare really ramps up the tension here, especially with the characters' relationships. I was on the edge of my seat wondering who would betray whom.

The romantic tensions felt so layered and conflicted — I wonder if this was planned from the beginning or evolved naturally during writing.

The city feels like a character itself, full of secrets and danger. I'm curious whether the setting was based on a real city or entirely imagined.
