Luce Boudrou has formed an alliance with Death, and her coterie - and she is now recruiting allies from among the other charun for the forthcoming war against Ezra.
Former enemies will now have to team up if they are to have any chance against the power that opposes them, and protect human kind at the same time.
There are still hidden secrets for Luce and her loyal coterie to discover and they will have a bearing on how this war ends.
How far can they trust Adam Wu? What is he still hiding?

Rise Against is the fourth book in the highly enjoyable Foundling series by Hailey Edwards - I read the first three books very close together in January this year, but have only just got around to this one, even though it was published in August.
There is a lot to enjoy in this book and some more secrets have been revealed which will make the next one pretty interesting, but it did feel a bit like things were being strung out in this one, rather than getting to the point - although the Luce-Cole relationship has finally progressed.
I have enjoyed this one, but would really like to see the series reaching some sort of resolution in the next book - although I have no idea how many Hailey Edwards plans to write. The next one is probably going to have to be pretty special for me to carry on if this is not the case.
All in all a good read, if you have read the first three, and they have a lot of charm - make sure you read them in the right order though.
My short reviews for the first three books can be found here:
Book One: Bayou Born
Book Two: Bone Driven
Book Three: Death Knell
