Millennial Mage #12
Outbound
The iron-clad Reality of the world cannot be denied, and the Void cannot be filled. The many true threats to Zeme remain hidden for the moment, allowing all of humanity to thrive in their various shelters. Those who wield Magic devote themselves to their people, giving them a chance to exist.
Advancement is tantalizingly close, and with Tala immortal and strong in ways she is only beginning to understand, the Reality of Zeme will only become clearer. As Tala prepares to alter her soul and her life once again, she must face what she has become and who she is becoming.
After the wedding, the world will open to her in ways that she never imagined. With her husband and other soulbonds at her side and her home in tow, she will set out to explore beyond the lands she was raised in.
New allies and enemies await as Tala is finally coming into her own.

Series continues to improve
J.L. Mullins had a way of continuing to expand the world they created that both stays true to established lore, and gives us new wonders to explore. I can't wait for the next book!

Awesome Addition
I’m not sure how we’re this deep in and I’m still dying to get the next book. I feel like there’s at least another arc and a half left.

I love it when a plan comes together.
This series is a consistent source of joy for me. The opening stretch is admittedly a bit slow, but weddings tend to be that way. 🙂 It’s still satisfying to see Tala and Rane finally formalize what’s been true for so many books.
Things pick up considerably once the honeymoon begins. It's great to finally see Rane really flex in a fight and establish himself as more than just the Robin to Tala's Batman.
Even more exciting, the long-foreshadowed House drama is finally catching up with Tala. Book 7 remains the standout of the series for me, so I was thrilled by this turn and am very much looking forward to what comes next.

honestly
This meanders a bit. Some truly weighty moments that the MC needed to deal with. Deep and consequential. The time spent might seem frivolous as she travels and grows the world, but the underlying issue *needed* time. Otherwise it would be a glib and superficial treatment of a serious change.
The final battle was awesome and massive.
Looking forward to 13.

A great one
If you like this series, you'll love this book. It's one of the best in the series. It excels in all the ways the previous books have. To romance is believable and enjoyable. The new characters are interesting characters and interesting insights into the world. The magic systems continue to be fleshed out in interesting ways.
It's all great. Just read it.

JL Mullins continues his slice-of-life fantasy with volume 12. In it, Tala and her man Rane go out into the wilderness.
They meet a powerful pair of beings, a god-level wolf and his space-manipulating wife. After qualifying for pack membership by fighting their young wolves, they are further trained in magic.
They then go visit traveling cities. These cities move by floating or walking along the ground using magic. They learn more new things and get into some vigorous sparring.
More excitement is coming besides these adventures.

Enjoyed everything about The Book except one thing and that’s the idea of 4-D space.
Any scientist with a passing background in physics and they will most likely tell you that we all live in four dimensional space as the fourth dimension is time
Still worthy of five stars though
