Always fun to come back to this world, and this one does not disappoint!
This book wrecked me in the best possible way. I don't think I've ever been so emotionally distraught over a work of fiction, mostly because this plot broke my heart over and over, climaxing with a sorrowful speech over a grave site. I read this book early one morning when I couldn't sleep and my husband awoke to find me huddled in the fetal position crying.
Despite the waterworks, I can't express just how impressed I am with the series thus far. I love the diversity and depth of the characters and have never read a series that has so many strong, inspirational female characters who actually sound and act like women. This series is a winner, and I see myself returning to it again and again.

Continuing the theme of really fun books in this series, I have to say I am not surprised that once again Sullivan has written a book I really liked. This is the third in the series, so I would recommend reading my first two reviews to find out more about the world and magic, but the shortened version is that this is the same setting as Hadrian and Royce's Riyria, but thousands of years earlier when the world is just beginning and the people of it are slowly starting to make history.
This story follows many of my favourite characters again: Raithe, Brin, Persephone, Sari and more, but it also brings in some newer ones like Tesh. I really liked Tesh's more prominent focus in this book, and as this book is the start of the real war between two great peoples, I think that the focus made sense too as he is a warrior.
Honestly, there's not too much I can say about this one at this point in the series, besides that it's great and you should read it, but I am really enjoying seeing how the magic of the world is being unlocked through new discoveries about the Art.
I also really like that although this whole book is pretty much focused on a War and getting ready for a War, Sullivan still managed to keep me interested and make me really want to see where things would go. There's also some pretty big twists to the fighting of the War which made it a lot of fun!
Overall, great once again, 4*s from me :)

AMAZING! My favorite of the first 3 so far. Honestly I was on the edge of tears at the end. This was such an intense read, I had to audiobook it while I was working so I could keep progressing, I was hooked! The twist was a great add to the ending unfolding. I’m obsessed with this serious so far, it’s been an exciting but so “at home” kind of read that I wasn’t expecting to love so much. Truly a 5/5 star read! Go read these books if you haven’t yet!!
