I have no words. What a perfect, satisfying ending to what might be my favourite trilogy of all time. I love Amara and Philos, I love all the other strong women in the story, I love to hate Felix

and I’m so glad he got exactly what he deserved

, I cried several times, and these characters will be living rent-free in my brain for the rest of time - I’m about to get real annoying because I genuinely will never shut up about this trilogy. Also, do I smell a spin-off??? Huge if true

One of the best series finales I have read. This trilogy has been an extremely enjoyable read that has kept me interested every step of the way. All the characters have great depth and the world building really transports you to ancient Italy. Definitely recommend.
