The only thing that can save the realms now is the one thing more powerful than the Fates.
After a startling betrayal ends with both Sera and the dangerously seductive ruler of the Shadowlands she has fallen madly in love with being held captive by the false King of the Gods, there is only one thing that can free Nyktos and prevent the forces of the Shadowlands from invading Dalos and igniting a War of Primals.
Convincing Kolis won’t be easy, though–not even with a lifetime of training. While his most favored Revenant is insistent that she is nothing more than a lie, Kolis’s erratic nature and twisted sense of honor leave her shaken to the core, and nothing could’ve prepared her for the cruelty of his Court or the shocking truths revealed. The revelations not only upend what she has understood about her duty and the very creation of the realms but also draw into question exactly what the true threat is. However, surviving Kolis is only one part of the battle. The Ascension is upon her, and Sera is out of time.
But Nyktos will do anything to keep Sera alive and give her the life she deserves. He’ll even risk the utter destruction of the realms, and that’s exactly what will happen if he doesn’t Ascend as the Primal of Life. Yet despite his desperate determination, their destinies may be out of their hands.
But there is that foreseen unexpected thread—the unpredictable, unknown, and unwritten. The only thing more powerful than the Fates…
My Thoughts:
This book picks up where Book 2 (A Light in the Flame) left off. This is not a stand-alone book you should read books 1 and 2 before this book.
This book has great world-building and fabulous characters. It made me cry, and it made me laugh. Kolis is just... well I hate him. You really feel all that when reading this book. As for Sera and Nyktos, you can't help but root for them and the love they bring to the pages.
Jennifer is full of storytelling ability. She reels you in and leaves you wanting more. I listen to this book on Audible. Let me just say Stina Nielsen is a fabulous narrator. She makes you feel all the feelings. She brings so much to the story. If you haven't listened to her narrate give her a try. You won't be sorry.
P.S. If you love fantasy, and romance books with a kick a** female character this is the book for you. I loved it and can't wait for book 4 (Born of Blood and Ash) coming May 7, 2024. The wait will be torture!
