Ok, I loved LOVED the ending!!!!!

I am utterly grateful this book started moving in a solid direction. I thought it would be a lot more exciting and action packed. But it reminded me of Part 1 of HP and the deathly hallows where all they did was hide in the woods😑😑😑 (see what I did there)

I adore Mer (water wielder), Fane (loveable man/Trefor's owner/iron and finder of metals) , Ifanna (princess of thieves) and Trefor (the sweet corgi whom sniffs out magic).

I would have rated this higher but that middle part damn near took a sista out😭😭😭

The magic was pretty cool, but the magical killer water mare's were badass. 

So much sorrow, bloodloss, greed, and heartache🥺🥺🥺 luckily this story ended on a positive note or I would have SERIOUSLY been done with this author🤣😭👏🏼

 I appreciate the nod to her previous work The Bone Houses at the end🥰
