Mary E. Pearson has me all in my feelings right now. What an amazing, roller coaster ride of an ending. It's so sad leaving these characters behind. This trilogy is amazing, definitely one for the hardback collection. ...more

So after reading Dance of Thieves by this author that takes places in this same world I decided to read this series. It's just okay series. I like Dance of Thieves book better and can't wait to read more in that series.

This was a good ending to the trilogy. I'm glad it wasn't split into 2 books. It easily could have been. Instead it wraps everything up quite nicely in one long book. The fate of multiple characters was left in the balance at the end of book two. This one started out right where that one left off. Spoiler, but not: All the main players survived to fight another day. In this book we continue to follow Lia as she and Rafe flee Venda. Their romance has its ups and downs in this book. I liked how th ...more
