"Nightclaw watched her the way I sometimes sensed Draven watching me— as if he couldn’t take his eyes off her. As if she were the most beautiful thing in the world to him."
I absolutely loved this book and the way that it made my heart race, gave me physical chills, made me cry, and even audibly gasped at times. One moment, I was thinking about how absolutely BADASS Morgan has become, and the next I was screaming, NO NO NO WTF in my head.
The first chapter had my brain going wild with questions. Is this a true or regular dream? Is Kaye going to turn into one of the children? Is Morgan going to sacrifice herself!? I was constantly trying to predict what would happen next, and I was always surprised.
Oh, Draven. My favorite character throughout the series, but my love for him was solidified with this book. The instant bond between him and Medra and the visual of him wearing a baby carrier holding baby Medra had me in awe. The way he teased Hawl for making Sunstrike freaking patê to help heal her injured wing. The way he respected Morgan and would lay down his life for her.
The spice! Fueled by fear and uncertainty with the future, Draven and Morgan were not taking their time with each other for granted.
This book was a roller coaster of emotions. I was not even a quarter of the way through the book when my heart started racing and characters started dying. The tears! The connection I felt towards some of these characters was so strong that I felt myself grieving alongside Draven and Morgan. During Chapter 12, one of the scenes gave me physical chills and goosebumps, but they didn't stop there.
Although I am so sad that the series is complete, it ended perfectly.
Thank you, Briar Boleyn, NetGalley, and Starwater Press for the ARC of Knight of the Goddess in exchange for an honest review.
