The book did seem repeated in a lot of places. While the concept of the book was wonderful and full of surprises but I didn't like it as much as I thought I would

This one like other reviewers on here say is a bridge for the end. And I could not get past the 50% mark of The Eternal Ones.
It's at complete hold of the final war against the God's of Otera.
The group of is on a side quest to get answers which drags out. And there to much which has to go on for the plot. Not to mention Deka resolving to get over problems from events in this book. I am so upset right now and it shows because I had to come back to this one almost two years later to leave a review.
While I adore these cast of characters the potentials gone. Everything from abilities, growth, and relationship trust. My interest to find out the end was after reading TMO.
But of course thoughts on what I got through of this trilogy finale in The Eternal Ones are coming.

Great read. I just love this world and the characters.
Deka and her group of friends have such an amazing relationship and their strength as a group is so important and fundamental in the story.
Lots of twists and mind blowing revelations, it kept me guessing until the end who could be trusted.
I can’t wait to see how Deka and her friends story ends.

Note: This is the 2nd book in a trilogy. There will inherently be spoilers in the description. Proceed with caution!
General Description: 6 months ago, Deka freed the goddesses and now they must look forward to freeing the kingdom from war. Deka and her friends must work together to break out their other friends from capture. However, their mission gets a bit derailed as Deka's power continues to grow and with more secrets coming to light than Deka could imagine. Will Deka be able to save all of her friends? What will her new powers do to her? Who's secrets will change the fate of the world?
The goodies:
- Deka's character arc was extremely interesting to follow along with.
- I love seeing the relationships Deka has with all the side characters in the novel.
- The actions scenes definitely had my heart pounding.
The loss of 1.5 stars:
- They changed the audiobook narrator and it really through my off. This narrator was still good, but not as good as the first narrator in my opinion.
- There is a lot more worldbuilding done in order to take us to the 3rd book and it felt a lot more clunky than book 1.
Overall, if you read the first book an enjoyed it, I'd still recommend this second book. I have some high high hopes for the 3rd book.
