Let’s get on with taking down Vogel and freeing all the people! She annoyed me because this is book three.

All I wanted was for Elloren to just become the Black Witch stop saying she is and just BE.

I wanted things to be tied up in this one but I felt like it added more things, new names, and just too much.

The beginning of this book could have been whittled down some.

There is so much action in the last third of the book, it really picks up pace and then it’s a irritating cliffhanger!.

Epic world building is still there and you just get a sense this world the author built is so vast.

I liked getting to know him better in this book. He is battle honed, politically savvy, smart and just an all around leader.

Lukas Grey is so knowledgeable and such a leader, sometimes I wish he was the Black Witch 😅.

We are in book three girl, you gotta unleash that power and learn to control it! Be the Black Witch already!

Elloren finding her courage – but damn it took so much and so long for her to do it.

My Takeaway: I thought this was the last book of the series…and I think it should’ve been. World Building: epic world building but sometimes too much going onīringing the Heat: 🔥🔥🔥🔥 – was not expecting this…😬Ĭreativity: love the world of The Black Witch My Attention: wavered sometimes (mostly in the first half) Thank you to Inkyard Press and NetGalley for giving me a chance to read this eARC.
