There was such strong character growth in this one for our MMC Neil. I liked that he was finally thinking for himself and allowing himself some happiness.
The new characters are great and the conversations and banter going on now is absolutely brilliant! The world building continues to grow between the two realms and across the ocean. this series is such an enjoyable and easy read,there's always a lot going on but there is never any big info dumps or long winded passages you need to skim read. There are so many characters to enjoy including humans and fae, pheonix's and pegusis, merpeople and kelpies, demons. Wild animals and all of them run alongside royals and commoners. lesser beings, two realms that exist alongside each other , oh, and on underwater kingdom!
And then finally our slow burn erupts! Book 3 for the win all around! I love how each book in this series has gone strong, with a great plot, intriguing sub plots, forboding twists and all the little breadcrumbs of what awaits us next.
Speaking of breadcrumbs- what is it with Tessa being able to break compulsion? Her potential as a bad @$$ is now sky high and continues to climb as she learns new skills along with learning how to utilise her powers. I am also very interested in what on earth the royals are up to after that comment by healer Jo! And does their chosen one have something to do with hurting their people or is all that smart and charm he emits actually a genuine side of his personality? I have to admit I do want and hope that he's a good guy because I kind of like him and he does seem to want to help/ do the right thing...
Final Thoughts:
This series is perfect for those who love danger and action but without the darkness and gore, it has high stakes on epic slow burn that makes the characters question themselves and the world around them, and some brilliant banter from the animal side kicks and the wonderfully detailed side characters.
