Not as good as the first book, but just as sweeping, gorgeous, heartbreaking, swoon-worthy, and brilliant. Definitely a little darker and more fantasy world focused. I laughed. I cried. I held my breath. Roman and Iris forever.

Going back into the world of Divine Rivals was fabulous!
With Roman forgetting everything we are thrown into a whole new ballgame of intrigue, getting to see what life is like from the view of Darce's Soldier's as opposed to the front lines for Enva.
I loved everything about this book, now, that being said, I did cry a lot during it, so be warned, being some tissues.

What a beautiful end to this duology. Again, RR is a master at prose and this was beautifully done. I think the reason it’s a four for me this time and not a 5 is only because there was a lot of military strategy in the middle that I think could have been whittled down a bit. I’m also really glad not all our beloved characters made it out. War is gruesome and bloody and sad and she painted that perfectly. I will absolutely be reading more of her work.

Cute book. They're very "I'll always find my way to you" or "I'll love you in every lifetime". Tore my heart out that he fell in love with her again
