4.0

Not gonna lie, most of this book felt like filler. I think it was necessary filler, though; Slade’s backstory and Auren’s healing journey—physically and emotionally. It did drag a bit until the last , like, 5% then: BOOM! Everything happens real quick and in a hurry. Kinda not looking forward to all of the angst I predict Book 5 will bring, but also excited to see what happens next.

I really liked this book. It was nice to see Slade and Auren grow closer and see their relationship evolve. The ending of this book had me gasping, crying, clutching my pearls. It was nice to see more of Slade’s past and more of the world. Auren has been through so much and although she occasionally slips on her journey she is so resilient. The relationship between Slade and Ryatt is also complex and interesting. There are lots of great written characters

and a lot to happen in the impending war.

I’m really interested to see where the series goes from here but I’m invested
