Heliacle has everything I love, from fae-like characters, elemental magic, female rage and empowerment, to polyamorous fated mates.

This filled me with both rage and hope and I loved every second of it. CC's writing it just so beautiful and lush, which makes it so easy to read and just fly through. I can't wait to read the rest of the series and learn more about all these characters, especially Lyrik!

I loved how violent this book was and the fight scenes were so much fun to read. I'm just so unbelievably excited to get to more of it all!
