When Magic Fades

Talented #5

by Amy Hopkins

This is it. The final challenge. And boy, is it a doozy. Emma must complete her two final tasks for the Guardians. The first? To locate and train the successor for the Horned God, so he may lay down his mantle and let a new generation lead the Fae. The problem is, he doesn't want to. And there is one last test to be given before Emma has officially atoned for the crimes of the Talented. With all of magic at risk, Emma must decide what is most important to her, and just how much she is willing to sacrifice for a community that has shunned her for all her life. Please note, this is the fifth novella in the Talented series, but there is a short story that comes before it chronologically. Please read A Festive Day before embarking on this final adventure with Emma and her friends.

When Magic Fades (Talented Book 5)

OMG 😆 😱 This was just an incredible author and excellent series, didn’t want it to end , hopefully another book comes out with down the line more exciting things going on with them..
I loved this book, I enjoyed the story line. Emma was one of the best heroine that I have read in a while. Her love ❤️ for people and her sacrifice at the end made me live this book even more.
I am so happy she ended up with Henry, you could tell from beginning they were meant to be together… the characters were outstanding and I felt like I was part of the story…
I definitely recommend this book & the whole series….

Good end of this series. I found myself reluctant to leave Emma and her friends. Really enjoyed the world this author created.
