Thanks to NetGalley for providing me with the opportunity to read and review this prior to publication. The third instalment in the series draws things to a close, leaving Wendell and Emily in an unusual predicament. It felt slow at times, and the dramatic moments of the story fell a little flat as things were conveniently sorted out.
Having found their way back to Wendell’s kingdom it is now incumbent upon them to remove the threat to the throne and to try and restore the kingdom. Emily uses her scholarly research to help with key details, and we get the opportunity to see Wendell in what could best be described as his natural environment.
There’s the expected drama, but they always seem to manage to find a way to resolve issues before things become too awkward.
