Description

A powerful curse forces the exiled Queen of Faerie to choose between ambition and humanity in this highly anticipated and jaw-dropping finale to The Folk of the Air trilogy from a #1 New York Times bestselling author.

He will be the destruction of the crown and the ruination of the throne

Power is much easier to acquire than it is to hold onto. Jude learned this lesson when she released her control over the wicked king, Cardan, in exchange for immeasurable power.

Now as the exiled mortal Queen of Faerie, Jude is powerless and left reeling from Cardan's betrayal. She bides her time determined to reclaim everything he took from her. Opportunity arrives in the form of her twin sister, Taryn, whose life is in peril.

Jude must risk venturing back into the treacherous Faerie Court, and confront her lingering feelings for Cardan, if she wishes to save her sister. But Elfhame is not as she left it. War is brewing. As Jude slips deep within enemy lines she becomes ensnared in the conflict's bloody politics.

And, when a dormant yet powerful curse is unleashed, panic spreads throughout the land, forcing her to choose between her ambition and her humanity . . .

    This book was great but I feel like there was less of that tension and suspense/plot twists because it was the ending of a trilogy. The Wicked King had more of a shock factor, this one leaves you happy but did leave me feeling a bit unsatisfied (maybe from wanting to read more). For some reason, a happy ending doesn’t sit right with me for this series lol.
  • Finished in two days!

    I cannot explain how much I love this series. I have grown to love Jude and Cardan so much. Honestly wish I gave myself more time to read the finale but it was too great to put down.

    The book went smoothly in the beginning like the other books in the series but towards the end it kinda got boring and repetitive to the point where I had to skip chapters to get to the point.
  • Beautifully Immersive

    I thought my days of loving fairy tales were long behind me at 75, but this series of books has totally restored my imagination. What a surprise to fall into such a fully-realized fantasy. I want to stay here forever.
