tbh I do not know how to feel about this book.
Sometimes I feel that the author is just writing to extend the pages, which in a series like this is not the best option. There were times that I felt this book was just a filler for the series, yes there were adventures and missions, but the beginning was just... there. I also felt that towards the end of the book (mostly) there were some strange things in the vocabulary used. I mean, the book is written for a general audience (as in vocabulary) so when all of a sudden a word used in a higher range of vocabulary appears in the middle of a relatively easy sentence to read it is just weird.
There is a lot of inconsistency too about how the characters act in the difference settings (and no, it is not because they are soldiers trained for war) and how they react to everything that happens to them.
Nevertheless, the ending is set perfectly for the next book, which I hope comes out rather sooner than later, as I want to know what happens next.

Genre & Tropes : Romantasy x Dragons x Touch Her and Die x War plot x Spicy
Un troisième tome hyper attendu que j'ai dévoré mais qui n'est pas un coup de coeur absolu
Je viens juste de terminer ce tome après avoir passé une semaine à dormir très peu et à rêver de pouvoir sécher le boulot pour continuer de lire ><
Comme les deux précédents tomes, c'est un livre addictif que j'ai dévoré avec grand plaisir ! Il a ses défauts mais ça ne veut pas dire que je n'ai pas apprécié ma lecture =)
Je vous conseille de relire au moins le précédent tome avant de lire celui-là parce qu'à part quelques personnages, j'avais oublié la moitié des noms et c'était assez déconcertant au début xD
Ce que j'ai particulièrement aimé :
- l'univers ! Pour moi, c'est un des gros points forts de ce livre parce qu'il y a une telle richesse autour des religions, des cultures, des langages ... J'aurais voulu que les héros passent beaucoup plus de temps sur les îles pour les explorer !
- la roooomaaaance !! C'est le deuxième gros point fort !! J'adore toute cette tension entre Xaden et Violet tout au long du livre, les moments hyper pfioulala mais en réalité ce que je préfère, c'est le fait qu'ils s'aiment et qu'ils n'hésitent pas à se le dire ... et qu'ils sont prêts à franchir toutes les limites, même les plus horribles et ça les rend tellement plus intéressants et humains !
(Et OK Xaden est tellement sexy quand il est en mode surprotecteur ><)
- les quelques touches d'humour qui m'ont bien fait rire (mention spéciale pour la scène dans la librairie xD J'étais MORTE !)
Ce que j'ai moins aimé :
- j'aurais souhaité que l'intrigue aille plus loin et surtout j'ai eu l'impression que la partie avec les dieux sortait un peu de nulle part ... J'ai pas souvenir d'avoir vu ça dans les précédents livres et je ne suis pas sûre que ça soit bien utile ...
- cette fin juste ...trop bizarre xD Outre le fait que ça ressemble beaucoup à ce qu'on a eu dans le précédent tome sur certains aspects, j'ai eu l'impression qu'il me manquait des pages parce que ça n'avait aucun sens ><
Bref, une romantasy sexy et pleine de tensions que j'ai dévoré ! Pour moi, ça reste un incontournable à lire mais sans que ce soit un coup de coeur que je relirais plusieurs fois ...
J'attends le prochain tome avec impatience même si pour être honnête, j'aurais préféré que ça reste une trilogie ><
(j'ai peur que ça fasse comme Blood and Ash de Jennifer L. Armentrout que j'ai plus ou moins abandonné parce que ça trainait en longueur ><)

A highly anticipated third book that I devoured but which is not an absolute favorite
I just finished this book after spending a week sleeping very little and dreaming of being able to skip work to continue reading ><
Like the two previous ones, it is an addictive book that I devoured with great pleasure ! It has its flaws but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy reading it =)
I advise you to reread at least the previous book before reading this one because apart from a few characters, I had forgotten half of the names and it was quite disconcerting at first xD
What I particularly liked :
- the universe ! For me, it's one of the big strong points of this book because there is such a richness around religions, cultures, languages ​​... I would have liked the heroes to spend much more time on the islands to explore them !
- the roooomaaaance !! It's the second big strong point !! I love all this tension between Xaden and Violet throughout the book, the hyper pfioulala moments but in reality what I prefer is the fact that they love each other and that they don't hesitate to tell it to each other ... and that they are ready to cross all the limits, even the most horrible ones and that makes them so much more interesting and human ! (And OK Xaden is so sexy when he's in overprotective mode ><)
- the few touches of humor that made me laugh (special mention for the scene in the bookstore xD I was DEAD !)
What I liked less :
- I would have liked the plot to go further and especially I had the impression that the part with the gods came out of nowhere ... I don't remember seeing that in the previous books and I'm not sure it's very useful ...
- this ending just ... too weird xD Besides the fact that it's very similar to what we had in the previous book on certain aspects, I had the impression that I was missing pages because it didn't make any sense ><
In short, a sexy and tension-filled romance that I devoured ! For me, it remains a must-read but without being a favorite that I would reread several times ...
I am impatiently waiting for the next book even if to be honest, I would have preferred it to remain a trilogy ><
(I'm afraid it will be like Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout that I more or less abandoned because it dragged on ><)

I feel overwhelmed. The cliffhanger ending!!! So many new questions I'm scared finding out the answers to in the fourth book. Read a story that it will be either 2026 or 2027!
The book was wonderful. It was a worth the wait and the anticipation. I think this might be the best one yet. I'm literally in tears at the minute. Emotions are definitely running.
I loved that it picked up right where Iron Flame left off and it developed from there. The story was just so beautifully written. I love this world a lot. The flight leathers are away until our next journey in the series.
The characters were brilliant as always. Violet was definitely more tolerable compared to Iron Flame. Xaden is Xaden. Can't say much else! The other existing characters were good and worked in the scheme of things. A handful of new characters were introduced and they were great.
The dragons. I love them. Aside from Tairn, Andarna and Sgaeyl, we get a glimpse of the sassy attitude of Feirge and the no nonsense one of Glane. Tairn is still a grump but a funny one. If it was acceptable for a dragon to be a book boyfriend, he would be a top candidate. Andarna is her usual sassy and sometimes petulant self. Sgaeyl is well Sgaeyl. I love her.
The book is written entirely in first person. The book is mostly Violet's POV. We do however have one chapter each from Rhiannon, Imogen and Xaden. I really liked this and it worked well.
The dedication at the start was perfection. It felt like I'm being described. Thank you Rebecca.
I can't recommend this book and series enough. I love it.

My biggest takeaway from the ending is wtf. The beginning left me utterly confused the first few chapters and I felt like I missed some information from the last book. Some characters I just don’t remember at all. I will also say that there were sections where I couldn’t figure out the passing of time because they’d sleep one night and suddenly it’s 6 weeks later or a month later.
I appreciate that Xaden and Violet actually spoke to each other this time (mostly). I know we’re in the middle of the story but there’s so many loose ends and I have more questions than answers. I can’t imagine what could happen in two more books…
