This is a thrilling, unique and wonderfully depicted ending to a series that just set my imagination ablaze. This has fated mates, a shadow daddy, a reluctant warrior Empress, Fae magic wielders, battlecats and a superb gender swap of the Arthurian legends.
The world is so fully formed and the characters are fully fleshed, flawed and fabulously fun. There is great LGBTQIA representation and characters of all cultures depicted. The little nods to modern day conveniences - think baby slings and baby bottles, are funny little anachronisms.
As the mystery of her lineage unfurls, Morgan goes from strength to strength. Her little tribe of misfits follow her into battle again and again. That final twist really caught me unawares!
Draven is that perfect morally grey, shadow daddy hero we all want and Morgan the intelligent, mentally tough, loyal friend and very reluctant leader. I love that even though her friendship with Lancelet is fractured at times, they still turn up for each other. She makes an impact even on their newest allies and that is what makes the story so wonderful, Morgan is her own hero and she is very much the mover and shaker - Draven is HER sidekick!
I heartily enjoyed this quadrilogy and I've now added all of the authors other books into the TBR from hell! Please please please give this series a go!
