This was my favorite book in the series! There was so much that happened, so many different places on the Gyrradin continent visited, and so many questions answered (or not answered, lol). It was hard going into this knowing it was the end of the series for these particular characters. The novel did not disappoint in the slightest!
Since this is the last novel in the series, I’d like to touch on more of my opinion of the romantic relationships. I LOVED having characters who were not only bisexual, but also polyamorous (though that term is not used.. and it’s a loose association to that term tbh). There were love triangles, but there wasn’t any jealousy. It was wonderful to have that without having other characters hurt and angry. It was a beautiful dynamic with Amaris and Gadriel as well as with Nox and Malik… and of course between Amaris and Nox. Just knowing that the love that the characters shared between each other wasn’t fodder for bruised egos and jealous tempers, but instead was respected and honored, for they respected, honored, and loved each other (whether romantically, platonically, or both).
I sobbed at the end of the series as I wasn’t ready for it to end (who ever is with a good series though?!).
Thank you Piper, for creating such well-rounded, loving, queer characters. As a queer person myself, THANK YOU for writing these characters!! It was painful to let them go, but imho, it’s the sign of a talented, creative, goddess-blessed author! ♥️
