Absolutely amazing. Mulford did such an amazing job with the entire Okrith series and novelas. These stories will forever be engraved in my heart.

(3.5 stars) This was not what I was expecting…from the description I was hoping to get more insight into Okrith prior to the attack on the High Mountain Court, but it focused more on Heather and Embry’s falling in love, then the immediate events leading up to Heather meeting Remy. I still enjoyed it, but it was jarring to transition so many years in one leap.
