Because with how little Sophie has fought so far, I seriously doubt her last action as the moonlark will be to kill Gisela. With the author’s style of writing, I’m very worried the next book (or two) will be an infodump followed by a very rushed ending in which Gisela likely dies by accident.

We STILL don’t know why prentice called swan song- he was so important in the beginning and now he barely comes up! Marella’s mother knew something about the neverseen and they likely played a role in her accident, but that hasn’t been revisited since it was briefly mentioned. Sophie still owes a debt to empress pernelle that hasn’t been addressed- and now pernelle is apparently on the enemy’s side, so it will be interesting to see how that plays out. She’s now talking about an 11th book! This is what happens when you’re so stingy with plot points and secrecy that you’re at the very end of your story with dozens of threads left untied. I need an epilogue that is hundreds of chapters long about Sophie and Keefe's happily ever after!Įxactly! SM doesn’t know how to put together a story. Good writing from the author, I hate that this story is ending soon and I am amazed she'll be able to wrap everything up in just one more book.

Majorly cringed when Gisela showed up again, ugh, and Vespera's murder was shocking.Īnd the ending. Glad we are getting more answers on Cyrah. Loved seeing Jensi a bit more in this one. I think it's very telling he had her on a pedestal in his brain! So thankful Sophie finally saw what a brat Fitz can be sometimes. Eeeek! I am way too old to be this excited about my favorite fictional couple figuring things out and kissing but I don't care! It is giving me LIFE right now!!! I have been a Team Foster-Keefe fan since I started the series and that kiss was EVERYTHING. She's one of my favorite characters in the series and if SM kills her off, I'll be devastated.Ībsolutely, 100% loved chapter 42. I'm a little worried she never came back from finding Cadfael though. And the naming the dagger thing was funny, too. The sleepover scene was hysterical and I love that Ro helped Sophie open her eyes about Keefe.

Loved the time we had with Ro in this book. She's making the decisions she feels are right and standing up for herself. I LOVE this sassy version of Sophie where she's done letting people walk all over her. I raced through it so I definitely need to go back and read it again, but wow! I think this might be my favorite book so far.
