[December 2022 issue of Locus.](https://locusmag.com/2022/12/issue-742-table-of-contents-december-2022/) [While you are here, please take a moment to support Locus with a one-time or recurring donation. The Last Dreamwalker is a powerful tale that asks how we process our inheritances – good, bad, and evil ones alike. I enjoyed seeing Layla’s understanding of her mother evolve even after her death, especially as she grows more confident in herself. While her aunts provide a balanced sense of humor and hijinks to Layla’s life, Gemma is alone in her pursuits, and the people around her suffer greatly because of her absence. Gemma is seemingly the only one willing to use her gift to a point beyond reason. As one of the many sources of tension between her and her mother (in addition to her hair, the way she walks, breathes, etc.), Layla is abandoned emotionally by her mother even before her passing. But what makes Woods’ characters so enticing is their flaws, in addition to their ways of loving. Like Layla, her gift seems more like a generational curse as the line between the real world and dream world grow thinner with each passing day. Each of her relationships with her brothers is unique, and like normal family relations, can be strained. The intensity of their feud only increases as the tide of the Civil War turns against the South, and Gemma is urged by her daughters to give up her seemingly fruitless pursuit in exchange for a life off the island. Her brothers are both successful and enjoyed a much more stable and loving relationship with her mother than she did. The connection between the generations is seamless, and focuses squarely on the women in these situations more so than on the supernatural and institutional forces working against them.
