Review of advance copy received from Author
The Arcane God was such a fun continuation of Ty and Ena’s story! I really loved getting the additional POVs in this book and experiencing their world from different perspectives.
One of the things I especially appreciated was the representation. As a mom, I loved seeing such an honest and realistic portrayal of pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and breastfeeding. Those details made the experience feel incredibly genuine, and I really appreciated that the author took the time to portray these things realistically.
I also loved watching Ty and Ena’s relationship continue to grow, along with their family. There was something really special about getting to see everything that they’ve built together.
Overall, I thought this was an excellent ending to their story. I’m so glad I got to experience their journey, and I really enjoyed seeing everything come full circle.

This was amazing. The world building was beautiful. The description gave such amazing imagery. I was immediately pulled into this. It was intense and intriguing. An absolutely awesome story. I loved the main characters and how they brought this story to life. It was like you were right there with them through everything. I was so immersed in this, I didn’t want it to end. Just such a great read.

Overall: This was an ok conclusion to the trilogy that wrapped up the major storylines while setting up MM’s next series. I appreciated seeing character growth, and enjoyed a few of the newer relationships that developed. However, the pacing, excessive number of POVs, separation of the MCs, and heavy telling and not showing kept this finale from reaching its potential.
The book opens with the MCs traveling together to reach the MMC's mother. The pacing starts off a little slower because of the journey, but thankfully the traveling doesn't consume half the book. They arrive within the first third of the book, which kept the story moving. Turner also traveled alongside the MCs, so his POV was naturally woven into that storyline.
One thing I really appreciated was the MFC's growth. In book two, I struggled with her immaturity, especially with her juvenile break up with the MMC, lack of communication, and willingness to keep her pregnancy from the MMC without giving him any choice in the matter. I lost some trust in her because of that decision. Thankfully, she showed much more maturity in this book, including increased communication and I really appreciated the development. She also really pushed the MMC to grow because he was so avoidant in this book.
The MFC's sister also had a slower start, but once her storyline merged with Steig's, it became more engaging. I enjoyed how intense their first meeting was before they ultimately decided to become allies.
Steig continued to be one of my favorite POVs. He's incredibly loyal and compassionate while trying to navigate an impossible situation. I always looked forward to his chapters.
I also appreciated the postpartum representation. Pregnancy sucks, postpartum is difficult, and losing one sense of identity is always a hard journey. I love that all of this was represented in this book and was nothing but supportive of the MFC during this.
Xena and Turner were another highlight for me. I loved that Xena was the assertive one in pursuing the relationship and intimacy with Turner. She was direct, confident, and continually showed Turner that he was worthy of being loved.
Critiques:
Although I generally enjoy multiple POVs, there were simply too many in this book. It often felt like there was no priority to whose story was most important so everyone received their own POV chapters. Rather than adding depth, the constant perspective shifts distracted from the overarching story. On top of that, several chapters jumped between different time periods, which only added to the confusion.
My biggest criticism, though, was separating the main couple yet again. In book one, the MMC left town for years. In book two, they were separated because of what I felt was a very juvenile breakup. Then, in book three, they're separated once again. I will give the author credit that each separation happened differently, but by the final book of the trilogy, I was ready to see the MCs together. The marketing also heavily implied that the MCs were united, so reading chapter after chapter of the MFC believing the MMC was dead was pointless. They don't reunite until about 41% into the book. While they aren't separated immediately, it happens fairly early, meaning roughly 22% of the book, the final book in the series, the main couple was apart, again. By that point, it just felt repetitive rather than emotionally impactful.
Along those same lines, I was disappointed by how quickly the MFC emotionally accepted the MMC's death. I'm not referring to her search of the MMC, she absolutely exhausted herself trying to find him. What disappointed me was that once she reached safety with his mother, she quickly shifted into accepting that she'd never see her husband again, despite never finding a body. I understand people grieve differently and that she needed a way to cope, but I personally wanted to see her continue holding onto hope. Having just finished Catherine Cowles' newest unfinished series, where the characters refused to stop searching for Nova without definitive proof, the contrast here was especially noticeable.
Another issue was how much of the book consisted of characters educating one another. For the final installment, I didn't particularly enjoy reading extensive explanations of an entirely new belief system. The MCs and the Stryx repeatedly explained their cultures, worldviews, and magic systems to each other. Often, we'd read one conversation only to have another character repeat the exact same information to another character. For example, the MMC would learn something from his stepfather and then later relay it to the MFC and Turner. Another example, the MFC would learn something from the MMC or the Stryx and then repeat it all again to her sister. This happened over and over, making everything repetitive.
The story also relied heavily on telling instead of showing. Many significant stretches of time were skipped with statements like "months later," but we rarely experienced what happened during those weeks or months. It often felt as though very little actually occurred besides the MFC progressing through her pregnancy. One example was the MMC's relationship with his mother. We were told he remained angry with her for months, refusing to even call her "Mom." Yet after one brief conversation, he was suddenly hugging her and calling her Mom again. The emotional transition felt abrupt because we never witnessed the gradual healing. Similarly, Steig's return to the Underworld was summarized rather than shown, which made those emotional moments feel less impactful.
Lastly, the modern language occasionally pulled me out of the fantasy setting. Phrases like "full stop" and "need to chill" felt out of place and reminded me I was reading a contemporary voice rather than being immersed in a fantasy world.

Review of advance copy received from Author
Well dang, such a great ending to this trilogy. I really just loved all of the additional POVs we get in this book!
Ena, Ty, and Turner are still on the run over the mountains for answers. And of course we are put in edge of your seat situations, and gut wrenching scenes. Ena has to face a horrific realization that not everyone may survive this. I really love just the bond Ty and Ena have, especially since it's been a whirlwind journey for them since the beginning. I definitely loved that you get both their POVs because I really felt their pain, their fear, and their love for each other. Turner also faces the time to step up and take responsibility, which I loved because his character needed that growing up moment and it made him one of my favorite characters in this book.
We also get Greya's POV which was really fun because she is a strong character in her own right. And her role as the new matriarch helped to pave the path towards the conclusion of this book.
Steig, as grumpy as ever, had his own POVs as well. He is the dad of the group honestly, and I just absolutely loved him. His love for his family also warmed my heart. Steig and Lara are just the power couple.
And of course we meet new characters with a new (but old) powers and their introduction into the story was so perfect. It connected a lot of dots for a few of the characters (no spoilers) and Turner also gets his time to be a feral blush worthy MMC which I absolutely ate up. Turner and this new character had me just giggling and kicking my feet because she is a bad*ss and he has no problem being told what to do 🤭
And of course the spicy scenes were amazing, I loved them and there just could never be enough of them.
But beyond the individual love stories going on, of course the plan to overtake the underworld is being put into motion. Throughout this whole book, every action taken is towards the future peace. I really just loved how everything slowly began to fall into place.
Now what also got me excited is the epilogue of this book, just hinting at what is to come and I just couldn't be more on board for this newest part of this world.

This was a tidy last installment of this series. It's a little bit hurried and compacted in there, but on the whole you get a satisfactory story.
Overall, my biggest critique was the expediency of the ending compared to the build-up around it. We're also working in plenty of time-frame jumps and are just told and not shown how we got here. There were more POV's this book, and while I didn't mind them necessarily, there was set-up for some tension that never fully paid off. Steig, for instance, was trying everything in his power to help his friend while appearing loyal to a brutal regime for his family's safety - he's sent off on retrieval missions with "brutal daemon babysitters" to watch his every move, and he makes a fuss about having to evade them, and we're given to believe this will be difficult to achieve.... meanwhile he just up and leaves with Greya and we're told there's no follow up from his compadre's, no recourse... nada? His wife is put in a collar upon their return to the Underworld... a POV from her might have been fun to see how she was stoking resentment for the King, and how she ended up in said collar. We're told Cole is a bad ruler, and we're told why we don't like him. But we aren't shown, not really. We're just getting from A ----> B a little lazily, in my opinion.
I still LOVED Ena and Ty's relationship though. They're so hot and heavy. And sweet when it counts. Can't fault that. It was a little annoying to have them be separated, though. AGAIN. But overall, I've enjoyed their story. I have to admit... I did not end up being a fan of the pregnancy trope in the end. That's just a personal preference, and nothing against how it was written or portrayed. Just not my cup of tea.
I also was NOT overly impressed with the vernacular that appeared from time to time. I'm reading about Daemons and Witches, and shifters and we're throwing in terms like "full-stop", "abso-fucking-lutely"... LAZY. I've DNF'd books for this alone, but the series did have enough of my goodwill from the previous books to carry me through it. But these expletives drove me up a WALL and definitely pulled me out of the story, and impacted my rating.
Overall, a fun and uncomplicated read with a good amount of spice and a mostly satisfying conclusion. Even if we got there quicker and more directly than I would have liked.

ARC REVIEW
The Arcane God | M.M. Parks
4☆
“There is chaos in life, Ena. There is change, and there is pain. There is loss, and there is suffering. But in between, there is balance, there is peace, and there is joy. And you are strong enough to handle it all…” -Ty
What I liked:
- Multi-POV (And I mean multiple. Yes please give my all the POVs.)
- Full boss bitch metamorphosis (Because change is hard AF. But feeling like you’ve lost all sense of self only to come out stronger on the other side? Hot girl shit.)
- Xena, the absolute icon 💅🏼
- Turner appreciation
What I struggled with:
- The angst continues (Ena and Ty are separated for an extended time in every book, can a girl catch a break?)
- “The change” is low key body horror (cool AF but I’m squeamish y’all)
- Although I loved the multi POV, I felt it threw the pacing off a bit. The journey over the mountains took forever and then the end wrapped up so quickly. It also really threw me off when it was mentioned that the three books had basically transpired in a little over a year. Huh?
If you love:
- Magic ✨
- Multi-book series
- Adventure? Spice? Angst? You got it all.
Thank you to the author for the ARC! ✨

NEW ARC COMING OUT NEXT MONTH!!
Date of Release : 18TH SEPT 2026
Date : 18th August 2026
Book : The Arcane God (Omnis 3)
Author : M.M Parks
Genre : Romantasy
Now I can’t tell you how much I loved book 1 the most which was a great introduction into the characters and I’ve been a huge fan of this indie author since then. This book in particular is still about Ena and Ty but it’s also about the feud between witches and daemons which has finally come to a boil in this 3rd book of the series hence forcing everyone to pick a side. Well that is before everything else collapses around them.
This book in particular has more POVs from multiple characters and it was fun having more character building on Steig too which made me real happy. I know this books main genre is dark fantasy but I do think I’ve always felt is was more of a Romantasy 😃 If you love witches and daemons in love then you ought to check this series out!
Thank you to the author for giving me the chance to ARC read and review all three books over the years! ❤️

Thanks to MM Parks for the ARC! 💕
I love this series so much, so I was super excited to get the chance to read the finale before release!
And what a finale! Even though the first book remains my favorite, this one was also so so good!
I love her writing and world-building. It makes it super easy to dive right into it!
There was so much happening and getting to know the Styrx was such an exciting addition to the whole story. They have a very interesting way of life, god and a new magic system.
The character growth was amazing. Ty and Ena were always my favorites, but that really changed in this book. I mean Turner?!?! I love him so so much! I really hope for a Turner spin-off!
This was a phenomenal finale for this series and I really wish it wasn’t over!
For me, the end came a little too fast and it felt too easy. But at the same time I was happy that for once something came easy because Ty and Ena really deserve some easiness in their life now!
Turner and Styrx spin-off, pleeeeaseee 🥺🥰

Review of advance copy
The book opens immediately after The Unknown Daemon: a pregnant Ena, her husband Ty, and their friend Turner are crossing the brutal, unmapped Chasm Mountains, sent by a seer's warning to find Ty's long-estranged mother and a group of "Omnis" worshippers before a foretold danger catches up to them. A river crossing goes wrong early on, and the search for what happened splits the party's fortunes for weeks, forcing Ena and Turner to keep moving without answers while grief and a string of strange new symptoms take hold of Ena. What starts as a survival trek turns into something bigger once they reach the other side of the mountains: real answers about who Ty's mother is, why she left, and a discovery about Ena's own bloodline that reframes her cravings, her Gift, and her marriage to Ty all at once.
Back underground, the Underworld hasn't stood still. King Cole's grip on power is fraying, and the people who love Ty and Ena are working, at real personal risk, to make sure there's still something worth returning to. The back half of the book pulls every thread home: the political and blood-debt reckoning with Cole that's been building since book one, and a multi-party negotiation that has to invent, from scratch, a place in this world for a family, and a people, that fit none of its existing rules.
Character Development
Ena spends this book discovering she isn't only what she's always believed herself to be. A hidden third bloodline surfaces through an escalating, genuinely frightening set of blood cravings, and the horror of it isn't abstract: the sharpest early scene in the book is Ena catching herself mid-intrusive-thought, calculating how she could hurt someone she loves to get more blood. That fear of turning into a danger to the people, and eventually the child, she loves most runs under everything else she does this book. Her resolution doesn't crown her queen; daemonic succession structurally has no room for a witch on the throne, and rather than let that be a defeat, the book has her invent an entirely new role for herself, one built on the actual skill she's spent three books demonstrating: standing between people who don't trust each other and making them listen anyway.
Ty spends most of the book physically apart from the story's center of gravity, and that separation does real character work rather than just plot work: it forces both him and Ena to prove they can function, and grieve, without each other before the book will let them reunite. When he does return, his arc closes on a more honest reason for his lifelong reluctance to be king than simple protectiveness of Ena. He admits, plainly, that kingship has always meant suppressing the witch half of himself the Underworld never wanted to see, and that the exhaustion of hiding that, not just fear for his family's safety, is what's kept him running from the throne. Learning the real, ugly truth about how his father died gives him closure without pretending grief resolves cleanly just because the facts finally arrived.
Turner gets the most genuine expansion of anyone in the cast. He's spent two books as comic relief and loyal third wheel, and this book finally gives him his own stakes: a real, unplanned relationship with a stryx woman that catches even him off guard, and an insecurity underneath his easy humor that he says out loud almost as an aside, that he doesn't expect anyone to actually choose him. His claiming by his mate isn't played as a punchline for long before the book lets him be honestly scared of it, and honestly happy too.
Kaya, Ty's estranged mother, could easily have been either a saint or a plot device explaining her own absence away. Instead she's someone visibly still working through the guilt of the choice she made decades ago, offering real help without demanding forgiveness for it, and the book lets Ty's anger at her sit unresolved for a long stretch rather than rushing a tidy reconciliation.
Max, the stryx elder and Kaya's own mate, functions as both the book's exposition engine for stryx culture and a quiet mirror for Ena and Ty's situation: his own decades-old bloodmatch bond to Kaya is the lived precedent that makes Ena's diagnosis legible, and his patience in explaining an entire foreign belief system to strangers without condescension is one of the book's warmer running notes.
Xena, Ty's half-sister, is blunt to the point of rudeness for most of the book, and that bluntness turns out to be a genuine character trait rather than a flaw to be softened; she claims Turner as her mate on her own terms and defends the choice in a room full of daemons without flinching. Steig and Lara, a married daemon couple caught directly under Cole's thumb, carry a real subplot of divided loyalty and quiet sabotage: Steig is sent to hunt Ena and Ty and instead chooses to become their spy at real risk to his own family, and Lara turns out to be the sharpest political mind in the room once the book reaches its negotiating table, engineering the compromise that lets Ena stay without breaking daemonic law. Zak, previously a flat loyalist enforcer, gets a real complication when it's revealed he followed Cole more out of fear than actual belief, and that he was, once, a decent uncle to Ty before Cole's reign hardened him. Nial, an elder daemon freed from his collar, becomes the negotiation's institutional memory, and Mel, the Occidens seer, closes the book with a piece of prophecy about Ena and Ty's son that's unsettling enough to leave real tension hanging into whatever the series does next.
Themes
The book's central argument is that survival sometimes means becoming something you didn't choose to be, and that the right response to that isn't to force it back into an old shape but to build a new one. Ena's stryx heritage, Ty's mixed daemon-witch nature, and the book's eventual political solution are all versions of the same idea: existing categories (witch or daemon, queen or nothing) fail these characters, and the honest answer is to invent a category that actually fits, rather than making a person smaller to fit an old one.
Running underneath that is a real interrogation of inherited harm and what's owed for it. Kaya's absence from Ty's life, Cole's decades of cruelty, the blood spilled in the opening Ascension attack: none of it gets waved away with an easy apology. The book insists that reckoning with the past and building a livable future aren't the same task, and it refuses to let one substitute for the other. And running through both of those is the trilogy's closing argument about power itself: that lasting peace between historically hostile groups comes from pragmatic, patient negotiation, not from a single decisive battle or a marriage fixing everything by itself.
Writing Style and Effectiveness
The book's real technical achievement is its handling of point of view. This isn't the dual Ena/Ty structure the earlier volumes used; a full read shows the story rotating through at least five perspectives, Ena, Ty, Turner, Steig, and Greya, sometimes jumping backward in time with an explicit "X weeks ago" marker to reveal what was happening underground while the mountain party had no way of knowing. That's a genuinely harder structure to pull off than a simple dual-POV alternation, and for most of the book it works: the reader gets to feel the dramatic irony of Steig's compromised loyalty, or Greya's political bind as new matriarch, while Ena and Ty remain in the dark about it, which raises the stakes of their eventual reunion with information they don't have.
The prose itself stays in the same plain, functional, dialogue-forward register the series has used from book one, with banter still doing a lot of the emotional heavy lifting between explicit scenes. Where the book earns real craft credit is in its willingness to sit inside body horror without flinching; the stryx Change sequences in particular are rendered with a level of physical specificity that makes an inherently strange piece of worldbuilding feel visceral rather than merely described. The dialogue-heavy method of delivering worldbuilding (long stretches of Max or Kaya explaining stryx custom to Ena and Turner) is efficient but occasionally tips into information dump, especially in the middle third when several major revelations (bloodmatch, stryx heritage, the Aquilo-seer legend all being literally true) land back to back in the same handful of scenes.
Conclusion
The Arcane God closes its trilogy by refusing the easiest version of its own ending. It could have handed Ena a crown; instead it makes her build a role that's never existed before, and that choice is the book's real thesis in miniature: that surviving impossible circumstances sometimes means inventing new structures rather than squeezing into old ones. The five-way rotating POV is the book's most genuine formal achievement, letting the Underworld's slow-motion political collapse run in parallel with the mountain survival story without ever losing the thread of either, and the side-cast finally gets room to be more than furniture, particularly Turner, whose fear of being unloved gives the book's lightest character real weight, and Zak, whose loyalty gets a real, human explanation instead of a villain's shrug.
Where it's weaker is in how quickly some of its heaviest stakes get resolved once the plot needs them to. The bloodlust subplot spends real time building the horror of Ena possibly losing her mind and hurting someone she loves, then resolves cleanly the moment Ty returns and offers his blood, which softens tension that had been built up as potentially fatal. The stryx culture itself, while rendered with real physical detail, leans more on familiar shifter-and-blood-bond genre furniture (mates for life, a partner's blood as literal sustenance) than the daemon Underworld's more inventive social structure managed in book two. And as a trilogy closer, it leans hard on two books' worth of continuity; a reader arriving without them would be lost inside the first few chapters. Set against other dark fantasy romance trilogy closers, what distinguishes this one is its refusal to end on a battle: the climax is a negotiating table, not a sword fight, and the book's real accomplishment is making that table feel as high-stakes as any fight scene would have.
Evaluation
Overall Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5)
Writing Style: ★★★★☆ (4/5): the five-way rotating POV structure is genuinely ambitious and mostly lands; still plain, commercial prose overall, with some information-dump stretches in the middle third
Characters: ★★★★★ (5/5): real growth for Ena, Ty, Turner, Zak, and Lara, closing with a genuinely non-formulaic resolution instead of a predictable crowning
World-Building: ★★★★☆ (4/5): the stryx culture is textured but leans on familiar genre tropes; the political payoff across all three peoples lands well here
Spice Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5): frequent, explicit scenes across the book, including some kink content, comparable to book two rather than book one's lighter touch.
Trigger warnings: profanity, violence, death, animal death/dismemberment, grief/loss, pregnancy, childbirth, mental health issues (including anxiety, panic attacks, and postpartum depression), and explicit sexual content.
Recommended for readers who've already read The Knowing Witch and The Unknown Daemon and want the trilogy's central tension resolved in a genuinely inventive way rather than a predictable crowning; readers who enjoy a dark fantasy romance closer built on negotiated political change instead of a final battle; readers who want an ensemble cast where the side characters get real arcs, not just support roles; not a good entry point for new readers, since this book assumes full familiarity with the first two.

Review of advance copy
Thank you for this gifted arc. I have enjoyed following Ena and Ty’s journey along with the new POVs. Parks brought out all the stops in this finale and I look forward to what she gives us next.
Review of advance copy received from Author
Thank you to M.M. Parks for providing me with an ARC of The Arcane God in exchange for my honest review.
What a satisfying conclusion to the Omnis series.
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this trilogy, and The Arcane God may be my favorite of the three. M.M. Parks’ writing has remained consistent throughout the series, with a voice and world that feel distinctly their own.
One of my favorite additions to this final installment was the introduction of the Styrx. Their significance has been felt throughout the first two books, so finally learning more about them added another layer to the world and made the larger story feel even more complete.
But Turner stole the show for me.
His storyline and growth set him apart in this book. There is a pureness to Turner that I loved, particularly in his devotion to the people around him. Friendship and family is such an important theme throughout this story, and I appreciated seeing those relationships given real emotional weight alongside the larger conflicts.
I also loved that, even while wrapping up a trilogy, this book made the world feel as though it could keep expanding. By the end, I couldn’t help wondering whether we’re being positioned for an entirely new series centered on another character.
If that’s where we’re headed, I’m ready.
A wonderful ending to a series I’ve genuinely enjoyed—and hopefully not the last time we get to visit this world.

Review of advance copy
Favourite quotes:
“If you need this, it’s yours. My blood, my heart, my life is yours. Always has been, always will be.”
“Struggling with everything – with all the ways your life has changed, and everything that has been asked of you – it does not make you weak. It makes you human.”
ARC Review (no spoilers).
And the final book of the trilogy is here! (SEPT 18!)
I didn't like how the 3rd-person POV was used (or rather, wasn't used to its full potential) in Books 1 & 2, but here it got so much better!
The story and the mission are absolutely interesting and captivating. With new characters and a 3rd race of people, there is a lot more to discover about this world and its history.
But unfortunately, there were a few "buts" for me that made it difficult to fully enjoy this book.
At times, I felt trapped with Ena. I get it, she goes through big and wonderful changes, becoming a mother and learning more about her abilities and heritage, but still...
And because of that, at times the plot felt like it was dragging, while at the same time a lot of time was slipping by and important details were being left out. The book felt both rushed and slow at the same time.
I would have loved to know more about the 3rd race, the magic and life in the Underworld after the rebellion. The multi-POV could also have shown the final battle from different angles, which I think would have added so much to the story.
And the ending... It felt more like a seed for what is to come next than a well-earned and awaited conclusion to the trilogy and to Ena and Ty's story.
The "master and good girl" dynamic didn't work for me here either. It felt too flat, like it existed more in words than in actions. Though the spice scenes were good.
What I did like were two things.
First, the symbolism and meaning behind Ena's transformation - her becoming more, finding herself and finally finding her right place.
And the Stryx. Their belief about change - leaving parts of your old self behind every time. I thought that was beautiful!
And Turner. I hope he'll get the opportunity to tell his own story one day, because he was my favourite character. He's sweet, kind, funny and protective. I didn't feel like he got nearly enough screen time.
Anyway, my curiosity was definitely satisfied by finally knowing how the trilogy ends, but I can't say I'm satisfied as a reader or as a fan of this universe.
Thank you to the author and @booksirens for this ARC!

This book follows on directly from the previous book The Unknown Daemon where we see the handfasting of Ena and Ty. After a brief interlude within the prologue which covers a period of time from 20 years prior, during which little Ena is told an important story by her older sister Greya.
The Arcane God has a multi aspect plot with one part of the storyline following a pregnant Ena, her husband Ty and close friend Turner as they embark on a perilous journey across the Chasm Mountains to meet up with Ty’s mother Kya. A journey that is not only mentally challenging but physically challenging too. Fraught with danger, despair and courage and mystery. They come across the Stryx clan with their own type of magic. Another part of the story follows Steig, who has his own battles to overcome, he has been separated from his friends and his family as he is sent out on frequent revenge missions by Cole and is desperate to get back to his wife and childen. Both storylines are interspersed with visits to each of the covens and their Matriarchs, each of which has their own politics and secrets to add to the complex mix.
Ena is a little spitfire with a fiery temperament but at times struggles with doubts and the ability to cope with everything that is thrown at her which makes her more endearing and real. You want to giver her a hug, but she finds her true voice through adversity. Ty also doubts his ability to lead the Underworld and tries to sidestep his birthright to protect Ena. I was in awe for the all of these brave companions, I felt fear, joy and sadness, intrigue and fascination. It was a rollercoaster of emotions. There is friendship, hard-won trust, there are secrets and lies. I think this book has it all, The multiple point of view helps the reader to understand the thoughts and personalities of the characters in the book.
There are scenic landscapes, dangerous encounters, magical creatures, shapeshifters, witches, daemons and good versus evil too. I was sad when it came to an end but there is hopefully an opening for another story, there’s no cliffhanger after this book though.
If you put all three books together it would make an awesome omnibus edition that would challenge other epic fantasy novels in size and complexity.

Thank you so much to Books & Bloom Pr and the author for the early eARC in exchange for an honest review.
I definitely made things harder on myself by starting this series with book 3. I hadn’t read The Knowing Witch or The Unknown Daemon, so there were quite a few times when I felt a little lost trying to keep up with all of the characters, their relationships, and the history behind everything.
I really liked the premise of Ena, Ty, and Turner traveling across the Chasm Mountains to find the people who worship Omnis. There’s also a lot going on with Ena’s pregnancy and the strange cravings she starts experiencing, Ty struggling with his responsibilities to the Underworld, and the growing tension between witches and daemons. Greya and Steig also have their own things happening that add even more to the conflict that's going on.
There were definitely moments where I was like, “Wait... who is this again?” and I could tell I was missing some important context from the first two books. There are a LOT of characters, powers, relationships, and pieces of the world being brought into the story, and trying to piece it all together as someone jumping into the finale was a little overwhelming.
That being said, I could still see why there’s so much for fans of the series to be excited about. There’s romance, magic, danger, complicated relationships, and plenty happening with both the witches and daemons. I think I just would have connected with the characters and their journeys a lot more if I had experienced everything leading up to this book.
So my biggest takeaway is: **definitely read this series in order!** 😂 I think The Arcane God would be much easier to appreciate when you already know Ena, Ty, Turner, Greya, Steig, and everything that brought them to this point.
Anyway, please expect a more in depth review of this when I get through book 1 and 2. But overall this was a great read and I can say I was not bored at all!

There are a LOT of characters, powers, relationships, and pieces of the world being brought into the story, and trying to piece it all together as someone jumping into the finale was a little overwhelming.
That being said, I could still see why there’s so much for fans of the series to be excited about. There’s romance, magic, danger, complicated relationships, and plenty happening with both the witches and daemons. I think I just would have connected with the characters and their journeys a lot more if I had experienced everything leading up to this book.
So my biggest takeaway is: **definitely read this series in order!** 😂 I think The Arcane God would be much easier to appreciate when you already know Ena, Ty, Turner, Greya, Steig, and everything that brought them to this point.
Anyway, please expect a more in depth review of this when I get through book 1 and 2. But overall this was a great read and I can say I was not bored at all!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ 4.5 STARS
Okay… this series just keeps getting MORE chaotic, magical and addictive.
Ena, Ty and Turner head across the Chasm Mountains and right from the beginning you knew it wasn’t going to be easy. Between the volatile storms, dangerous terrain and the mysterious people worshipping Omnis, there wasn’t a moment where I felt like these three were safe and was constantly expecting something to happen. Ena’s delicate condition made it so much worse and the weird cravings!!!
Watching Ena struggle with these strange new urges while trying to keep herself—and everyone around her—safe brought so much tension. The question of whether she can control what’s happening to her had me turning pages because I needed to know what would happen next and what was going on.
And Ty - the Underworld responsibilities are literally calling and he’s basically like, “No thanks.” Ena comes first - swoon. Meanwhile Turner is losing his mind over it and thinks Ty has let everyone down. Their dynamic continues to be one of my favourites.
With the bond to Iblis finally broken, the relationship between witches and daemons is more fractured than ever. Greya stepping into her role as the new matriarch of the Auster Coven was fab and I loved seeing her try to carve out a new future for witches while Steig was caught between his family and his loyalty to the King of the Underworld.
There’s danger, secrets, shifting loyalties, magic, chaos and SO many questions that left me desperate for more.
This one definitely had me emotionally invested, and just when I thought things couldn’t get more complicated… THEY DID.
Magical chaos
Dangerous journeys
Morally complicated characters
Witches & daemons
Questionable decisions
Tension that keeps building
A story that makes you NEED the next book

Thank you so much to the author, MTMC and Books and Bloom PR for allowing me to arc read this.
This is actually the book that made me want to read this entire series. It’s not often that we get to see postpartum representation in a fantasy book, and this book shows it. Ena, the FMC struggles after having her baby. She struggles with breast feeding, struggles with motherhood, struggles with not feeling like herself anymore, these are all very important parts of life that should be told more often in books since so many woman do go through that. I was very happy to find a book that actually showed that.
To all the mothers who barely recognize themselves anymore. You are not lost, you are growing, and it is okay to change.
This series has quickly become one of my favorite series. But this book in particular is probably my favorite, we get more POVs from the side characters that we love, there is acurate postpartum representation, found family, and a whole new group of magical creatures that I found so interesting! When I first sat down to read this book I read half of it in one sitting, and then the next day I read the other half, I flew through it. I just absolutely love Ty and Enas relationship. This book could’ve been twice as long and I still would’ve read it just as fast. I can’t wait to grab the audio of this and do a full reread of the whole series once it’s out!
If your also sad that the story is over don’t forget to read the extra chapters on the authors website, they are some of my favorites!
I cannot wait for the new duology that the authors writing about Ena and Ty’s child!! I desperately want to continue reading about this world.

Wow! What a finale to the Omnis Series trilogy! Absolute perfection.!! I fell in love with the found family and how each character was a key puzzle piece in book 3 ( saying no more) 🤭
The world building and new character development were A+ , and # 3 kept the momentum going from page one.
I’m so sad that the series is complete! Maybe we’ll get a spinoff featuring Turner? Or some of the other characters? Pretty please 🤗
Blurb:
An epic journey…💯
Ena, Ty, and Turner must travel to the other side of the Chasm Mountains to find a mysterious group of people who worship a God called Omnis. With volatile storms and danger around every turn, they must survive the harsh environment all while protecting Ena in her delicate condition.
A new awakening…💯
Ty rejects his responsibilities to the Underworld, much to Turner’s chagrin, while Ena struggles with strange new cravings that could put her and others in danger. Can she control them before they consume her?
A clash of magic…💯
With the bond to Iblis finally broken, discord between witches and daemons is greater than ever. As the new matriarch of the Auster Coven, Greya must blaze a path forward for witches. Meanwhile, Steig must navigate his conflicting loyalties to his family and the King of the Underworld. Can they protect their peoples as the world descends into chaos?
THE ARCANE GOD is the epic finale to the Omnis trilogy, a witchy romantasy series about the forbidden love between a good witch with a dark Gift and a morally grey daemon with a secret mission...
Tropes:
🩸Multi-POV
🩸Epic journey
🩸"My wife"
🩸Pregnancy/childbirth rep
🩸Bloodlust
🩸Witches & Daemons & ??
The Arcane God, Book 3 in the trilogy releases on September 18, 2026 & will be a complete series! I highly recommend adding this ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ series to your TBR!

I’m always a little nervous going into the final book of a series I’ve loved because there are SO many ways an ending can go wrong, but The Arcane God was such a satisfying conclusion to the Omnis series.
And I need to give M.M. Parks some serious credit here because this series managed to accomplish something that is honestly kind of miraculous: it made me enjoy a pregnancy/motherhood storyline. 😂 If you know me, you know this is one of my most dreaded tropes. I’ve literally DNF’d books—and even entire series—because of it. I couldn’t personally relate to that aspect of Ena’s story at all, but somehow I was still completely invested in it. It felt like a natural part of her journey rather than something that suddenly took over her entire character, which made a HUGE difference for me.
My only real complaint is that I wanted more Ena and Ty together. I love these two, and especially knowing this was the last book, I was greedy. I wanted more of their relationship, more interaction, more them. Give me all the Ena & Ty content, please and thank you.
That said, I really enjoyed where their story ultimately went and thought this was a satisfying ending to a series I’ve genuinely loved. Saying goodbye to characters after spending an entire series with them is always bittersweet, but I finished this one feeling happy with where M.M. Parks left everyone rather than wanting to throw my iPad across the room—which, honestly, is about the highest compliment I can give a series finale. 😂
I’m sad the Omnis series is over, but I’m absolutely looking forward to seeing what M.M. Parks comes up with next. Whatever it is, I’ll be there.

Received a copy of the ARC and i’m immensely grateful as I do love book 1 & 2 so much!
Book 3 rounded off the trilogy nicely, though it is not my favorite book of the series. I understand the author’s intention on focusing on the journey and struggles of a pregnant woman in this book, but i did find the story a bit draggy and dull at the first half of the book because the story was not moving much at the beginning. The story only picked up its pace at 60-70% of the book, where it’s steering towards the big ending and I find that disappointing where there could be more focus on details of their strategy to overthrow cole, the building of different characters (such as Greya & Perse, Xena, Max etc) or even how Greya cleverly persuaded the matriarchs etc. The characters (especially the new ones introduced in this book) fell a bit flat for me and i personally felt their dynamics could be explored further. Perhaps i expected to see more from Ena after she has given birth because she was so smart and brilliant in book 1 & 2. But again, perhaps this was purposely done to highlight her transformation into a mother? I’m not sure but i felt that Greya’s character showed more power and shone in this book more than Ena. Overall, this was a pretty safe and solid book and i did enjoyed reading it.
That being said, i’m happy to be rewarded with a Turner x Xena chapter as well as a Steig x Lara chapter, which brings a refreshing change to the story. I am also very curious about Laden’s story and will not hesitate to pick up the new spin off book when it is released!

The Arcane God was a satisfying conclusion to the Omnis trilogy, even if it wasn’t my favorite of the three books. I’ve genuinely enjoyed this series and the world M.M. Parks created, and I’m definitely sad to say goodbye to these characters.
I really enjoyed getting to know the Styrx and learning more about their culture, magic, and place in the larger story. The world continued to expand in some really interesting ways, and I liked seeing how everything started coming together.
Turner was easily one of my favorite parts of this book. His character development really stood out, and I found myself far more invested in him than I expected. Honestly, I would happily read a Turner spin-off. 👀
Ena’s journey was a little different this time around as she navigated pregnancy and motherhood. Some of those moments were incredibly emotional, and I appreciated seeing this side of her, although I did miss the sharp, brilliant version of Ena we saw in the first two books. I also loved seeing how much Ty and Ena’s relationship had matured.
My biggest issue was the pacing. The beginning felt slower than I would have liked, and I wanted more time spent developing some of the newer characters, the plans against Cole, and certain aspects of the magic system and lore.
That said, the character arcs and emotional moments made this a worthwhile finale. The ending wrapped up the main storylines well, and while I’m not quite ready to let this world go, I’m happy with where everyone ended up.

5/5🌟
I couldn’t put this book down. I absolutely loved it! This was the perfect conclusion to this series and I’m just so happy with it!! I love the found family in here. Turner is actually so precious and must be protected at all cost! I loved the new additions to our found family as well (no spoilers here). The journey of motherhood and postpartum was beautifully represented in this book and honestly, we should see that more! Reading it made me realize how little I see the journey of pregnancy into motherhood including postpartum feelings in books. There’s so much change in that journey and goodness the author does a wonderful job portraying that in this book! Ty is such a supportive MMC and I love to see that!! This is a spicy book with multiple open door, descriptive scenes, I’d rate 4/5 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️. Another thing that I loved about this book is how the author wrote about these three different races of people and how they are learning to coexist and forge a new path for a better life. This book will make you laugh out loud and will make you sit on the edge of your seat. It’s just so good!! Thank you to the author and booksirens for the eARC. This voluntary review is my honest thoughts and opinions about the book. I think you’ll love this book and this whole series if you enjoy witchy romantasy, multi pov, multi race (witches, daemons, and…), identity crises, motherhood/pregnancy/childbirth rep, mental health rep, spicy scenes, and amazing found family.
“If you need this, it’s yours. My blood, my heart, my life is yours. Always has been, always will be.”
“It’s jarring, isn’t it? To realize that the way you know the world to be is maybe not what others know it to be?”
“You know what I see? I see an incredible, gorgeous woman whose body has done amazing things. Given life.”
“…it does not make you weak. It makes you human. And you are strong, because you have endured it anyway.”

Thanks to M.M. Parks and BookFunnel for an eARC of this book. All opinions are my own.

2.5 rounded up to 3 ⭐️ book 3 of 3 in the Omnis Trilogy, and picks up immediately where book 2 leaves off.
.
.
.
📕 The Writing:
Contemporary dialogue and phrasing in a fantasy setting is not for me, I fear. It was a lot of tell-not-show, this then this then this, “___ as fuck” descriptors, and 21st c. American idiomatic language that took me out of the scenes completely.
📗 The Characters:
A+ for a return of Fergus the cat!! 🐈⬛🖤🐾
FMC // Ena — loved seeing her come into her own as a negotiator, a delegator, and a multifaceted, cross-cultural figure. No spoilers!
MMC // Ty — we love a man who loves his woman. He fights for what he believes in, his chosen family, and against those seeking cruelty for power’s sake.
Side characters — very happy to see more POVs from Steig and Turner. Was nice to get a broader view from different perspectives, get a look into new magical races, and more lore about Omnis.
📘 The Plot:
So much potential and I loved the themes of survival and man the lore that we got here. I kept getting distracted by the language, but I do think the story is there. The journey, the conflict, it’s all interesting and if you are someone who can get immersive, you’ll really enjoy this.
📙 Bottom line:
Should you read this book? If you liked the first two books, then yes.
Will I read the spinoff duology when it comes out? Probably not.

I absolutely loved books one and two, so I was really excited to ARC read the final book in the Omnis series. While The Arcane God wasn't my favourite of the trilogy, I still had a great time reading it and loved getting to explore more of this world.
We follow Ty and Ena as they flee the Daemon world after discovering that Ena is pregnant and realising they’ll never be accepted by the current regime. Their journey across the unforgiving Chasm Mountains introduces them to the mysterious Stryx, while also uncovering new revelations about their pasts and parentage.
And there was A LOT going on. Between the secrets, the magic, the revelations and Ena navigating pregnancy and postpartum challenges, there was never really a quiet moment.
The multi POV format worked really well and kept the story feeling fresh, while giving us a deeper insight into the different characters and their motivations. There were several revelations throughout the story that completely changed how I viewed certain characters and events, which I really enjoyed. I also loved watching Ena and Ty try to grapple with everything being thrown at them, because apparently they hadn’t been through enough already.
Overall, The Arcane God was a satisfying conclusion to the Omnis series and a lovely way to say goodbye to these characters. If you’ve been invested in Ena and Ty’s story since The Knowing Witch, you’ll definitely want to see how everything unfolds.

What a great conclusion to the third installment in the Omnis series! I really enjoyed the strong storytelling, the twists and turns throughout the story, and how everything came together to wrap up the series.
One of my favorite aspects was the portrayal of motherhood. I really appreciated how the book explored the complicated emotions that can come with becoming a new mother-the feeling of losing parts of yourself, trying to figure out who you are now, and eventually finding yourself again. It felt like a thoughtful and relatable addition to the story.
As with the rest of the series, I loved seeing the FMC portrayed as strong, capable, and an incredible problem solver. She has always been one of my favorite parts of this series, and that continued here.
I also found the worldbuilding really interesting, especially the way the story brought together three different races and religions. Despite all of their differences, they found a way to come together, and I really enjoyed seeing that unfold.
And that little twist/surprise at the end?! 👀 I definitely wasn’t expecting it, and now I’m very curious (and excited!) about the possibility of a future spinoff?!
Overall, this was a great read and a satisfying conclusion to the Omnis series. I’m sad to see the series end, but I really enjoyed the journey!

Beginning where book 2 left off, Ty and Ena are on their journey across the chasm mountains with Turner in tow to fulfill Mel’s prophesy. While this ties up the trilogy it is not the best of the three books. The first half drags and I found myself not wanting to read it. In the end when figuring out how to take Cole out the climax itself seemed rushed. The traveling took forever. The removal of the wicked king of the underworld…over like it wasn’t central to the trio running for their lives in the first place.
They found the Styrx, but in the first two books the mention of a third race of magic is not highlighted so this seemed hastily put together. The whole blood drinking and Ena getting bloodlust just was odd and out of place. An addition of Ena’s thirst for blood just added an ick factor. I usually like multiple pov’s but this just seemed too busy. 4 different couples to contend with. People who shift at the full moon. Just too much new stuff going on.
Then there was Ena being separated from Ty. Again. This is the 3rd time. One per book. I like Ty and Ena’s characters. Just not as much in here. The epilogue teases that Ladon will get his own duology. Not sure if I would read it or not as I think this story’s ship has sailed, which is too bad as I rather enjoyed the first 2 books.
I got the book by the author providing the BookSirens link and wrote the review voluntarily.

Then there was Ena being separated from Ty. Again. This is the 3rd time. One per book. I like Ty and Ena’s characters. Just not as much in here. The epilogue teases that Ladon will get his own duology. Not sure if I would read it or not as I think this story’s ship has sailed, which is too bad as I rather enjoyed the first 2 books.
I got the book by the author providing the BookSirens link and wrote the review voluntarily.

✨ The Arcane God — M.M. Parks ✨
A worthy ending to an incredible series… but I have to admit, I came into this final book with HIGH expectations, and a few things left me wanting more.
The final battle? WAY too quick. After everything these characters had been through, I needed more tension, more chaos, more give me EVERYTHING.
I also struggled with Ena constantly being afraid to fully step into her power and assert herself. I really wanted to see more development there, especially after everything she had already endured.
And then we meet a new race, and honestly… I NEEDED MORE. We got the basics, but I wanted so much more information about who they were, their world, their history, their abilities… Give me the lore!! 😭
BUT despite all of that… Ena and Ty’s story still managed to surprise me until the very end. Their journey has been such a rollercoaster, and watching everything come full circle was incredibly satisfying.
And I have to give M.M. Parks credit for how raw and real she made Ena’s experience with childbirth and what was clearly portrayed as postpartum depression. It wasn’t romanticized or brushed aside, and that made those moments feel incredibly human and emotional.
Overall, I definitely needed more from certain aspects of the ending, but it was still a good and satisfying conclusion to the series.
And after everything these characters went through…
We got our happily ever after. 🥹🤍
A bittersweet goodbye to Ena and Ty, but a happy one. ✨

⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 rounded up
Overall I enjoyed the finale to this trilogy, although I found it trickier to immerse myself in this story than with the first two books. I enjoyed the world building expansion and the introduction of the new characters. I enjoyed how the over-arching storyline was rounded out and how all the individual story arcs were finished to conclude the series.
I found it trickier to connect with Ena's storyline, with the heavy emphasis on her pregnancy and subsequent build up to the birth etc, but do completely appreciate the sensitivity with which the author dealt with this and understand she explicitly wanted to represent this in her book. I think this depth of detail of that trope just wasn't for me, so this is a me thing rather than anything the author has done.
I did feel the passing of time in the book felt a bit disjointed andthrew me off at times. Also the final 'battle' felt a bit anti-climactic for me and seemed to happen very quickly! There didn't feel like there was much of a dramatic build up as I had been expecting.
I would definitely recommend reading this book if you have read the first two books. It does give a satisfactory conclusion and ties up any loose ends.
Huge thanks to the author and Booksirens for the opportunity to read an advanced reader copy. All thoughts and opinions are entirely my own and voluntarily given.

Review of advance copy received from Author
“There’s my viper.”
Ena, Ty, and Turner are on the run. Over the river and through the woods (and gigantic mountains), to be precise. As a witch and daemons, they must consult with a third race of beings with magic, and hope that these people can help them. And as Ena, Ty, and Turner look towards the horizon with hope, they must also look within themselves too. For the past is important for their futures, and chaos and peace hang in the balance.
Y’all, The Arcane God was such a wonderful conclusion to the Omnis series (book one is The Knowing Witch and book two is The Unknown Daemon)! The multi-POVs and character growth was so satisfying. Turner, a beloved side character, stole the show for me! This ending to an exciting and unique series of gods-blessed magic for witches, daemons, and shifters, shows the sacrifices people will make for those they love, how the past determines the future, and how motherhood can be equally exhilarating and exhausting. I love these characters and this story so much, and I know you will too! ♥️
The Arcane God releases on September 18, so you still have enough time to read book 1 & 2 before release day! Thank you so much, MM Parks, for having me on your ARC team! 💜💙♥️
