"The Final Light" by Stella Smith is a breathtaking conclusion to the enthralling Sunborn Soldier Series that fans have eagerly awaited. Set against a backdrop of enchanting landscapes and mystical realms, this final installment takes readers on a gripping journey as Rhidian, a Sun faerie, grapples with the weight of his past while striving to harness the powers bestowed upon him. The stakes have never been higher, as dark forces converge, threatening the delicate balance between the human world and the fairy realm. The malevolent Chaol emerges a formidable foe whose intentions are shrouded in mystery.

Rhidian’s path is not solitary; he finds himself reuniting with his long-lost brother, a twist that adds complexity to his mission. This reunion is more than a nostalgic moment; it ties into the prophecies that may ultimately determine the fate of both realms. As Rhidian battles external foes, he also confronts deep-seated internal struggles, exploring loyalty, love, and sacrifice themes.

The quote, "In the face of darkness, the light within us shines the brightest," resonates deeply throughout the narrative. Rhidian embodies this struggle as he seeks to illuminate a path amidst chaos, reminding readers that hope and redemption are formidable forces even in dark times.

Stella Smith crafts each scene with precision, merging action-packed sequences and moments of poignant introspection. Rhidian’s journey is both a physical battle against enemies and a quest for emotional growth. The vivid world-building immerses readers in lush forests and shimmering celestial realms, where unexpected allies and adversaries await.

As the tension escalates, each turn of the page heightens the anticipation of what fate has in store. Complex character arcs deepen the reader’s investment, making it impossible to put the book down. With a climactic showdown approaching, the story builds toward a resolution that will forever alter the fate of the human and fairy worlds.

If you’re a fan of fantasy infused with adventure and emotional depth, "The Final Light" is a must-read that will linger in your thoughts long after you’ve turned the final page.

The Final Light kept me riveted. I loved that all the characters played such an important role in the story; it wasn't just Rhidian and Kaelina. Anica, Blaze, Waylen, Dell, Elias, and all the other characters brought depth and heart to the storyline. It made me, the reader, feel as if I was part of their world and was battling alongside them. The anguish, doubts, anger, hopes, humor, and love they had came through in the words. I found myself crying on several occasions because I felt truly moved by the unfolding events. War is always tragic, but it's even more so when fueled by prejudice and hate stemming from ignorance actively engineered by someone else; in this case Chaol. Sadly, this fantastical story speaks to the state of our current world. It was a great read, and I highly recommend it. Received, and reviewed as part of ARC, but will buy series for friend. Absolutely great story.

This is the second book in the Sunborn Soldier series, and so far, it is also the final book in the series.

This book is going to follow Rhidian, who is a human soldier. He has a hidden destiny as a Sun Fairy. He faces all these new challenges and battles to protect not only the human world but also the fairy world. He realizes that the stakes are higher than ever as Rhidian confronts Chaol.

Chaol is a dark force that threatens both the human and fairy realm. And it is going to be up to Rhidian to protect both realms as the Sun Fairy.

I loved that this book was filled with action, magic, and such emotional depth. Rhidian's journey is to protect not only the world he knows but the world he doesn't. He has a huge destiny to fulfill, and all of this makes in an engaging and inspiring read.
