The Faithless

by H. N. Maupin

Following the death of Kallistar and Vadronia crowning its new king, the vampyres journey home at last. All seems fine, Saelea settling into a newfound peace, yet Draven can’t shake the feeling something is wrong. A feeling that grows once vampyres begin disappearing from routine hunts. Whispers spread of the fae, fear growing as they worry if the ancient threat has returned with a vengeance.



When Elysia, queen of the fae, learns of Kallistar’s sneaky games, she commands her people to march on Mournwyn while they’re without their strongest defenders. She’s furious to arrive in Mournwyn and find the army returning home. Instead of retreating to the frozen kingdom, she makes a home for her people in the woods near Castle Blackthorn, hiding away while they learn the land and wait for the perfect time to strike.



A second prophecy—one Fate commands stay hidden from the world, lest it change the outcome of Saelea’s destiny…



Old friends and foes unite for the sake of their world. Love and hate tangle with hope and despair as the fate of the undivine is at hand.

Review of advance copy received from Author

I just finished The Faithless and… wow. What an incredible way to end this series.

The FMC and MMC absolutely hate each other at first because they’re from two completely different worlds. She’s a fae, he’s a vampire, and there’s centuries of tension and prejudice between their species. But everything changes when an ancient prophecy begins to resurface. The FMC is determined to see her people come out victorious, while the MMC is equally determined to stop the prophecy before it changes everything. Along the way, they discover they’re connected in a way neither of them ever could have imagined.

This book has everything I love: magic, romance, action, and high stakes.

The magic system was one of my favorite parts. I loved seeing the different elements of magic woven throughout the story it made the world feel so rich and immersive.

And the romance? Don’t even get me started. I actually cried during several scenes. It was emotional, heartfelt, and beautifully written.

Something else I really appreciated was the friendship dynamic. Watching someone the characters trusted slowly become unrecognizable added so much tension and emotion to the story. That storyline pulled everything together perfectly.

The fight scenes were absolutely insane in the best possible way. I was on the edge of my seat through every battle. The action was intense, fast-paced, and impossible to put down.

As the final book in the series, I truly think H.N. Maupin nailed the ending. It wrapped everything up in a way that felt satisfying while still leaving me emotional.

This was an easy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ read for me. It made me laugh, cry, stress, and cheer right alongside the characters.
