Getting to know Tia on this level was an absolute joy. Getting to see beyond the fire plains, to more than the four kingdoms, was a great experience. I can’t wait to discover more of Lenya. I really hope to hear from Gulliver’s point of view, his character has a lot of depth that I feel like we haven’t even begun to scratch the surface on him. I loved (and hated) the Vondurian court, I think the contrast of their court to what we know in the Four Kingdoms was beautifully done. There’s also some hints to the history of the fire plains that I can’t wait to hear about, though I have a sneaking suspicion we won’t know what those involve until the book after next.

Great story with plenty of action and suspense to keep you interested. I love seeing the next generation grown up and finding their own places in the world and this series does it well, although the book can be read as a stand alone.

Couldn’t help myself, I had to finish this book the day I started reading it. Tierney is the daughter of Brea Robinson, whom was the main character in most of the Fae series previously. She completely shutdown the prison realm with her brother Toby when they were only 10 years old. Now 10 years after, the current dilemma is becoming heir to the throne of Iskalt. And whom she has to marry. Her father puts together a list of princes she has to chose from and she’s not all about choosing someone who would only care about her status. Portaling alone isn’t something she normally does. When she feels confident enough to make an attempt, things go wrong. She ends up in the middle of a battlefield again. I was super invested in finding out how it ended. But it unfortunately didn’t, it seems like there will be another book in the series or more. I love this so much, Tierney was my favorite in the Griffin’s series and want to see her happily ever after.
