Edge Lines by Ava Marie Salinger

5.0

Ava Marie Salinger is back with the third book in the amazing *Fallen Messengers* series and I had the best time reading this latest one! I had high hopes for this installment after both the first and second books kept me at the edge of my seat and *Edge Lines* had me gasping and swooning and everything in between.

Building on the fantastic elements laid out in the*Fractured Souls* and *Spellbound*, we continue to see Cassius and Morgan deal with the ever growing concern of the entity that is trying to wreak havoc on Earth and, as they find out, throughout all the Heavenly and Nether realms. Without spoiling anything I think it suffices to say that there are some Very Big, Very Concerning revelations in this book as our favourite demigods finally get some much needed answers to what happened in their past. Much like the previous novel, along for the ride are some new and highly entertaining faces like Pan who is just as sassy and just as amorous as legend makes him out to be, as well as some familiar faces in Victor who creates some inevitable tension just by his presence. However, since the stakes are higher than ever, we see everyone combining their collective strengths to protect all the realms, go on a rescue mission, and prevent the very fabric of reality from descending into chaos.

Apart from the nail biting action, and the excellently choreographed fight scenes, I really enjoyed the quiet moments between Morgan and Cassius and particularly seeing Cassius’s more vulnerable side which is juxtaposed with the impressive ways in which his abilities are growing. It’s delightful to be able to spend so much time with these characters and really delve into the nuanced and complex beings that they are. As always, Loki is, personally, the star of the show and I was utterly delighted with what he brought to the story. I cannot stress enough how fabulous this series is with its world building only getting better and better as the series progresses. Given what we learned in *Edge Lines* I am going to be counting down the days until the next book drops!

*Edge Lines* releases on the 18th of this month and the first two books are available for purchase or to read via KU now. I was thrilled to receive an ARC for this book through GRR and give it 5 big stars!
