I read the first book of this series as a free book back in January 2018. I loved it and then right away read the second (which I didn't love as much, but which was still good) before realizing the third in the trilogy hadn't been written yet....

I'm glad to say it didn't disappoint! I was worried -- what with my having not liked the second book as much as the first, on top of now a year's worth of anticipation -- but it was everything I hope ...more

A brilliant ending. Because I've read a lot more books than usual these last couple of years, I've been noticing a lot of 'close but not quite' endings for series, but this book doesn't fall into that category.
I love that so much of this book is worked around real historical Russian events, so much joy, especially that the Russians chose to embrace both religions for a while longer yet. By the old gods and the new <3
