I am sad to see this series end. I loved the characters, even though Séverin pissed me off more than 1/2 the time. The magic was so interesting, the character development was exquisite, and I loved the diversity. If you are looking for fantastical found family, definitely a series to try. 

Fantasy, Found Family, Diverse, Romance Subplots, 1/2 🔥 

“History was never dead. It was furiously alive even if it was lost, even if it existed only as phantom haunting conquerors or woven into bEdtime stories whispered to children.”

That ending... I can't decide if I loved it or hated it.  But this was a great end to the series, which I loved from start to finish.
