Overall Rating: 5 Stars

This book was AH-MAZING guys! After finishing The Remnant Chronicles at the end of September, I was eager to start this book and keep the good times going. This universe is the best and I’m so happy we’re getting another story set in this world. I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect going into it, but this was the PERFECT combination of old and new and I looooooved it!!

First of all, the characters are A+++++

A+! SUCK IT.

There are a few old characters to spark the interest of returning fans (guys, I SQUEALED when my smol cinnamon roll Eben showed up) and the other new characters are excellent! Kazi, Wren, and Synove are basically the Powerpuff Girls and I was LIVING for it. They’re so badass in their own unique ways and the bond they share was excellent to read about. I also really loved Jase and his family! Even though they’re pretty much the mafia, all of them are really layered and like Shrek, I enjoyed peeling those layers back and getting to know them better.

Onions have LAYERS.

Am I completely, head-over-heels in love with Jase Ballenger now?? I’ll let you figure that out on your own when you read it… *Winks conspicuously*

And the world building was SPECTACULAR!!! Once again, Mary hit it out of the park. Even though this takes place in the Remnant Chronicles universe, it’s in a new town, so we get the best of the old while discovering everything new. I loved it! The histories and religions are so fascinating to me and now I’m having a lot of fun piecing it all together with the last books.

FINAL WORD

I literally have nothing bad to say. It was SO GOOD!!!! EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS!!!!
