A review by taisie22
Queen of Song and Souls by C.L. Wilson

5.0

In book 4 of the Tairen Soul series, the world has become a much darker place. By the end of this book, though I very much want a happy ending, I'm not sure I'm going to see it. The forces of evil have aligned so completely that I don't know how the author will resolve this. Rain and Ellie are facing insurmountable odds now that fighting has finally started.
The battle scenes are well-written, immersing the reader. There are horrific scenes of torture and worse, though I'm happy to say the author was judicious in how graphic she made them, opting for more relating the results rather than details as it happens. Rain and Ellie have still not completed their true bond. Allies are not coming to the rescue and supposed friends turn traitor.
I'm anxious and I can't wait to see how this ends but I also want to read more slowly, not wanting to leave this wonderful world. Just one book to go...
