I finished this audio - and I want so much more! What happens to Bryn? I'm desperately hoping her story will tie into Fable - because I cannot even conceive of that series being finished.
Bryn is called home to Bastian - forced to leave the only home she has known with her aunt. Bryn always knew she would have to return - but held secret hopes and wishes she would learn more about her parents.
The Roths are notorious throughout all of the realms - cold, conniving, manipulative. They certainly don't disappoint. In an effort to secure his second merchant ring, Bryn's uncle sells her to a competitive family - Bryn is to marry the son.
But Bryn wants to lead her own life. Find her own husband. Make her own happiness. But the Roths won't anyone go - especially not Bryn.
I loved it - I wanted it to be so much longer, to tie into Fable's story. Great read.

I liked this book. At first I was excited to go back to the world from Fable, but as I started reading, I realized it wasn't going to be the pirate type of book I was expecting.

"The Last Legacy" was intriguing, fun and overall a good read. One thing that came to mind when I finished it, was that it wasn't as "exciting" as the Fable duology. Don't get me wrong, it's still interesting and there's some mystery elements included that keeps you guessing or making assumptions about certain characters, but those life and death situations that you would read in Fable, were missing here.

All in all, the pacing was okay (a bit on the slow side), and the book is suitable for Grade 9+ audience, as sex is implied but not descriptive.

If you liked the Fable duology, you should definitely read this book.

As always, thank you Netgalley and publishers for allowing me to read this arc in exchange for an honest review.

Returning to the Narrows with a deep dive into the Roth family! I loved this in depth look at one of the largest crime families in the Fable universe. Forbidden love, organized crime, found family - 4/5⭐️
