Murder by Death

Probably one of the strongest entries in this series; it felt tightly plotted, well paced and clearly part of a larger series arc.  Not all the previous books, even when they were good, felt like they were part of a larger story.

Most of Grave Destiny takes place in Fairy, which truthfully, I don't find nearly as compelling as the mortal realm, where Alex is a grave witch (able to talk to the dead through their shades).  Alex's life is divided between her mortal witch existence, and her fae existence in Fairy, which she's only becoming reconciled to.  My personal preference is for the mortal side, where I find her relationships more interesting, but Price managed to keep me invested in this story anyway.

Major character development took place at the end; it will be interesting to see where Price goes with it, as it's clear she's got a plan for these characters.  Hopefully I won't have to wait as long for the next book to find out what that plan is.
