This short fiction continues the story from Fireball Run in Darkened Streets so Reading that product before this one is recommendable but not necessary. The book has minor errors in the text not enough to distract from the flow of the story.

The story is about an Etherite contacting and associate from the other side of the Ascension War to get help in the investigation of the events from Fireball Run, this takes our protagonist to a cemetery where the aftereffects of the Sixth Great Maelstrom rear their ugly head interrupting their search, or at least it seems that way.

We liked this story a lot, it was a light reading, characterization of the protagonist was on point representing the most amicably interactions between Traditions and Technocratic Union when confronted with the possibility of a bigger threat but keeping the tension and ideological differences between them. The fact that this book references the enduring effects of one of the defining events of the transition from 2E to Revised is also a plus for us.

At the end of the book there is a list with the effects, artifacts used during the story. All of them look fun and easy to use in an appropriate Chronicle.

The Tabletop Gaming Club recommends this story for every fan of mage.
