The Echoes Left Behind is a gem worth reading, truly.

A story so short that it could barely fit a single page, yet the depth, style of writing, beauty and raw emotions behind it were more convincing than entire fantasy franchises. Lendros and Kalista deserve to rest, together.

Let me tell you a secret... All of Anthony Reynolds's stories are worth reading anyway. I mean, all of Riot's stories do, but I don't know, I feel like Anthony does such a great job at capturing the essence of the characters he writes about. So yeah, The Echoes Left Behind is really good.

When I heard there was going to be a short story including Kalista, there was only one thing I wanted. I wanted her to have this struggle remembering her past, and I had prepared myself to be disappointed. Joke's on me, it was there, so yeah.

This story is amazing, and it confirms only one thing to me... I'd love if Anthony could write more about Syndra as he did in The Dreaming Pool.

Honestly it was ok but for me I didn't care about their relationship that much primarily because it was hardly developed due to them already being dead and only super brief flashbacks giving us any implication of their previous relationship.

In the story, Thresh mentions that he was close to freeing her. if this is the case, and letting her kill him didnt work fully, then what was the next step and what would have worked? What knowledge does Thresh have about ending the curse?
