5.0

Rating: 5 Stars
This was a stunning and wonderfully dark conclusion to such a fantastic series. There have been so many twists and turns throughout this series and I absolutely loved every minute of it.
We are essentially on the brink of war as a new 'queen' is thrown into the midst, Jules Malone, Arsinoe's best friend. Arsinoe's skills as a poisoner and low magic wielder are put to the test as she tries to keep Jules's legion curse at bay. Mirabella has run off to the capital to uncover what Madrigal meant when she said: "Katharine is full of the dead." Katharine anxiously waits for Pietyr to awake, but without being able to divulge how he got into this state there is little the healers can do to help. She must figure out how to control the dead queens that rage inside her, find a way to conquer the dreaded mist that has turned against the island, win the hearts of her people, and figure out some way to bear the triplets. All of which she must do alone and in secret.
There were so many shocking things I didn't see coming and thoroughly enjoyed throughout this book. This story kept me on the edge of my seat and I didn't want to put it down. And although this definitely is a war and people do die, I'll admit I was in tears over these deaths, I will say that the epilogue left me happy and content with the way things turned out. I am happy to give this series 5 stars and can't wait to add them to my collection.
Happy reading my Friends.
