Feyre and the Night Court must create alliances and battle ancient magic to save Prythian.

As the third book in the series, there isn’t a ton I can say without a lot of recap and spoiling, so I’ll keep it short. This one was a tad long for me and didn’t have the impeccable sexual tension of ACOMAF, but it was nonetheless an absolutely phenomenal roller coaster ride the whole way.

I enjoyed this book, though Maas’ writing style is full of sentence fragments and unnecessary em dashes.

Truly sad to see this series go. A little Disney towards the end but that’s why we read books, to escape reality. The maturing of the characters and plot was great, and some lingering questions were answered. Good read
