too much about love and women, i love women but they were so unsecessary at some point. I love the royal family, but i don't think this book is as great as the first one

Okay, one more page. I allowed myself just one more page. But I did it several hundred times. Caution: these books are highly addictive, I typically find myself tearing through them in a sitting, and then only get 4 hrs sleep. You've been warned.

Quite simply the perfect book for me. Had great characters that I have come to love. Had a rewarding and engrossing story/plot. It was a stand alone novel but it was made so much richer because I had read the 7 books before this. I just really really loved this book. Fantasy done the way I like it - great characters, a lot of action, good guys vs. bad guys, intricate plot - what is not to love.

I'm pretty bummed because this is the last Riyria book available. I have loved each and every page of Riyria. These books brought a lot of happiness to me, so glad that I found them, read them and spent some time with Royce, Hadrian, Gwen, Albert and the rest of the gang.

My absolute highest possible recommendation!
