4 stars - It was really good
This book picks up right where the previous one ended. Erzen and Bethral were taken through a portal filled with wild magic to the heart of the Plains where they find themselves being attacked by Warrior-Priests who want Erzen’s magic.
I enjoyed this trip back to the Plains, especially since we finally get to learn what happened to cause magic to reappear. Ezren and Bethral have been attracted to each other since Bethral rescued Ezren from slavers but they both think the other isn’t into them. I loved watching them finally figure out they both want the other and starting a relationship together.
Bethral and Ezren’s adventure on the Plains was fascinating and kept me hooked. They are trying to evade the Warrior-Priests and along the way make new friends and create new stories. I was not expecting some of what happened to these two, especially with how the magic responded to Ezren’s feelings. It will be interesting to read the rest of the Chronicles of the Warlands series now and see how they deal with all the changes that has occurred.
Trigger Warnings: Ezren was held as slave, tortured, and abused; PTSD; broken bones; death; kidnapping; death of horses;

I would say this was a good book. Nice to be in the same setting as warprize. While this was a good read it wasn't a memorable one.

Re-Read
Bethal and Ezren's story and takes us back to the Plains, and basically ends shortly before the final couple of chapters of Warcry. I forgot how much I enjoyed everything being tied in without knowing it.

A fun continuation of the series and we have finally made contact with the first series!
I feel like I can finally rest easy and say, yes, Goodreads has the correct reading order posted. Follow the author's recommended reading order.
I march on to the next book.

It's funny how this was the Pallins book that I didn't feel that keen to read, and it turned out to be the most engrossing of the trilogy. I liked both Bethral and Ezren, and the new characters, and buildup to the final "battle" and the battle itself was great.

I think I liked this one of the three the best. There's something about Ezren I like.
