I’m not ready for this series to be over! I’ve procrastinated like nobody’s business and now it’s time. (Mainly because the library due date is coming up fast.) Also, side note: listening to the audiobook of these has been a pleasure. Not only do you get the correct pronunciation of the names, the voice actors are phenomenal. I love all the voices and accents that brought even minor characters to life. I highly recommend supplementing with the audiobooks!
There are zero ways to give a synopsis of the plot without spoilers, so you all get stream of consciousness while I’m reading the last book in the Ember in the Ashes series. I know, I know. You’re welcome. (Who let Maui in here!?)
Yay! Cute chonky emperor baby!
Soul Catcher- get your head out of your rear end. You know how to spot a trap! (It’s a trap!)
A new player has entered the arena! Who are you mysterious stranger!
Ofc there’s a massive abyss of misery fueled by suffering.
Laia, pls stop running into obvious traps. Kthxbai.
Ew. Karkauns are gross.
Well well well. We do learn more about the Nightbringer’s past! Very interesting!
Omg, Helene… throw poor Harper a bone, would you!?
Father!?!? FATHER! What!?!?!?
A queen!?!? Wife!?!? There was a wife!?
Way to bury the lede!
Angry Laia is my favorite Laia.
I snorted audibly startling my husband and the pets at this exchange:
“The river that did this to you. I don’t like it.”
“Are you going to find the bad river, Elias? Make it pay?”
Avitas Harper is a distraction. Yes ma’am he is. You should do something about that.
Livia wearing that throne like she was born there!
Omfg…FINALLY!
There he is! (Sorry to any Crowns of Nyaxia readers, but I had to!)
No.
Nononononononononono.
“How long since anyone offered him comfort?” My heart is breaking.
“The Mother watches over them all.”
I’m not crying. You’re crying.
It’s beautiful. I would not wish for a different ending. It’s perfect. It’s everything it needs to be and everything it should be. I’m only sad that it’s over.
