Thank you so much for the ARC !!

This is the fourth and final book of this series... so far... I will explain more in a little bit.

First off, I love this series! I enjoy the original story of Merlin and Arthur so much as a kid, to now find all of the adaptations of the legendary story with added little twists that you otherwise never would have even come up with. Morgan was dealt a horrible hand in her childhood. To be next in line to the throne and then cast away all because her bloodline contained fae blood is a cruel fact. but I have enjoyed watching/reading her grow into the powerful being that she is by the end of this book. Morgan also made incredible friends along the way and they stick with her right until the end with her battle to bring her real father's horrible reign to an end.

In this final book, Morgan seemed to know more and more answers to things that we were left completely in the dark about. Just all of a sudden she had these memories coming back and knew who people were and where entrances were to the secret castle, etc... Having these explained as to how she knew would have been beneficial to the story, but it isn't even attempted. There is however lots of action, and she learns how to control more of her powers, which makes the fighting all the more intense. It is an action packed novel that kept me on the edge of my seat!! There were also two other portions of this book that had my emotions so out of wack... Medra, how and why did she grow so fast? and she ended up having so many problems at the castle due to her being different... That was a rollercoaster every time the chapter changed to her POV. Then there is the self-sacrifice of Nightclaw... that good boy deserved so much more.. This whole scene made me cry. It was written so well that you were witnessing it happening, he fought so hard to protect her even when she told him not to... I don't know how she had the strength to go on..

I will say that there are some things that I was not to happy to have read in this final book.. but I also understand that the author might not have had anything else for that character.. What happened to Rychel was totally unexpected and random. I think her character deserves a little side story so that we can see what she went through and what happened to her.

There are unanswered or unresolved issues at the end of the book still.. the undead children wasn't resolved and we don't know if Draven and his people will still struggle to have children or are both curses broken with the items of three being destroyed? Will al of these be answered in the spin off series coming in November...? This is the juicy little tidbit I mentioned at the beginning... There is another series coming that will have characters from this world in it, but we barely have any information on who it is about right now.. I know who I hope it is..
