The Serpent's Curse by Lisa Maxwell is the third book in The Last Magician Trilogy (not a trilogy anymore). Esta and Harte are separated and they are trying to stop a goddess. While trying to stop her they make enemies everywhere they go.
How can this story be dragged out any longer? Seriously they get an item and then they lose it. Every single time. The most interesting characters are Jianyu and Viola and even this book I felt like they were missing something. This should have been the end and Maxwell has managed to drag it out. I will not be picking up the next book because at this point I am bored of the repetition and nothing being accomplished.
Two stars because this book is too long and it feels like nothing happened. Thank you to NetGalley, Simon and Schuster, and Lisa Maxwell for the free copy. This was an honest review.
