Vivid storytelling

The 4th book in the series and the first I’ve read as an audible. The voice actors did the characters justice.

For the story, I could see everything she was describing, filled with the hottest, terrifying, heartbreaking, and hopeful scenes in the series yet.

2 more books in this series and I cannot wait to dive into the novella bc I’m dying to hear that part!

Another phenomenal book in this series!!

I have loved this series so much. I love the character development tge plot twists just everything! As I was not seeing this one ending on a cliffhanger it does. The time jump kind of got me at the end and I'm anxious to see what the next book has bin store for Kane and Skyletta. The narration was amazing as well. I'm anxiously awaiting the next book and I hope it is released sooner than the last since I usually have to go back to relisten to the previous book again as a refresher because I forget what happens. This book is definitely a must do!!!!

Narration is terrible and at the wrong speed!

Great story, intriguing characters captivating. listened to all of them dispite the voices and speed!
