I liked the book but there was just so much unnecessary deaths. And i would have liked it better if the three storylines met sooner. I really liked the plot tho. I think the story is very interesting and i can’t wait for the next books.

I wanted to like this book so bad but ultimately I was a little let down. I wish that the individual main characters’ stories met sooner than they did. For the majority of the book (like 300 out of 400 pages) it was following 3 “main” characters, 2 of which met up and the story with them was good, a little slow to the point but still good. However Ciara’s portion of the book in my opinion was not needed (however it could be setting up for the next book & if it is that’s good but still a lot of wasted time on that in this book).
Ultimately I think it should’ve been the Warlocks vs Witches or The Nox not both. They don’t make sense together it was as if I was reading two different books at once.
I’m rating it 3 stars because I want to see this author succeed! I hope he keeps writing, I will buy the next books in the trilogy to support him because writing a novel & self publishing it is an amazing accomplishment & it takes skill that this author definitely has! His writing style is really good considering this is his first book so that fact alone makes me excited for the next ones. I just had high expectations for this & was a little let down.

I found Garrett on tiktok and knew I wanted to support his debut novel! This was an amazing first book, especially considering he is only 19 years old. This wasn’t a super quick read for me, but I did really enjoy the story and the last few chapters were definite page turners with a few shocking twists! Overall I think it definitely worth the read and I will be reading the rest of the trilogy when it’s released!

I love the authors writing style. I don’t usually read a lot of fantasy, but after reading this book I realized that I need to read more. It was very good.

(4.5/5 but i’m rounding up) and i’ll be mentioning things that are potential spoilers.
i really liked this book! like many, i’m here from tiktok. i have also been having a hard time finding a good book that i really get into, so i was kind of desperate for a good book. and i was not disappointed.
i also should say that i barely read fantasy-related books. but this was a really entertaining book that definitely broke my prejudice for fantasy books.
the imagery was one of my favorite parts of the book. i think i’m often not a fan of fantasy because i have trouble visualizing things and then i’m just lost, but i had no problem with daughter of light.
though i absolutely love this book, i do have some grievances…
although i was excited when finn and eileen met up, i think it did a disservice to ciara. i felt like finn and eileen were on their own amazing adventure, and then ciara popped up here and there.
and i was expecting the three of them to meet up by the end so the three stories made sense and whole, but it didn’t do that. i know that parts of ciaras story have to do with finn/eileen (the mountain book and the contrast with terra/light and eileen/dark), though there wasn’t a good connection that made sense.
this made it a little unsatisfying to finish the book. BUT i have hope! because i know that there are going to be more books and i’m sure a lot of those things will get fleshed out. because of that, i give a 4.5, but i am following my fourth grade math curriculum and rounding my answer; 5 stars!
there are so many great things about this book and the story telling i could write another review if i had to. overall, i am very much looking forward to the future for this saga.
