Chokshi crafts a final magnificent adventure infused with exhilarating perils and diverse mythologies, characters, and languages. With a single clue, they traverse Venice to reunite with Séverin because Laila’s days are numbered and Séverin’s fantastical desires may hold her last chance at living. Ruslan, the diabolical patriarch of the Fallen House, is the key to finding said temple, and Séverin must tread carefully if he wants to rescue Laila, Enrique, Zofia, and Hypnos, who have lost faith in him after his seeming betrayal at the Sleeping Palace in Russia. It’s a legendary instrument that, when played within the sacred temple beneath Poveglia, or Plague Island, could grant godly powers-and Séverin’s lineage renders him its sole player.

The short story called The Mule that forms part of the foundation novel (the first in the series) also won a retrospective Hugo award in 1996. In 1965 the original Foundation trilogy (Foundation, Foundation and Empire and Second Foundation) fought off a number of influential series including JRR Tolkiens Lord of The Rings to win a special Hugo Award for Best All-Time Series, to this day it is the only series to win such an award. The series consists of seven volumes spanning 500 years and although part of a series, can be read as stand alone stories.
