Description:“It seems fate has dealt me the same hand again. I know how to play it.”

A new king is on the throne and the rebellion lies in ruins. Keera spends her days drinking and her nights avoiding the strange dreams that have haunted her since she returned from the capital.

Keera’s family in Myrelinth won’t let her go without a fight. With new intelligence about the magical seals left behind by Keera’s ancient kin, the Light Fae, she rallies to face her demons and unleash the formidable powers she inherited from her people. But a shocking truth is hiding in plain sight, one with the power to unravel the entire rebellion...

The pivotal third installment in the Halfling Saga will upend everything Keera thought she knew about her enemies…and her allies.

I hate Keera right now. She's just being self-centered and selfish.

One of my biggest pet peeves in books is when there is a strong female character who spirals into self-destruction when something bad happens. It's like the author is running out of storyline ideas, so they try to make it sound like it's completely normal for someone who fights all their life to suddenly stop and just hide and feel sorry for themselves. That's the reason I absolutely hate the third Hunger Games book. Katniss should have never given up, lol.

I agree with you. I'm really not liking her. My only redeeming thought is that her pushing everyone away and drinking is her way of trying to keep her friends safe. I wish that she would try a different way to fight Damien who I hate.

Yes! Fight Damien and for her friends instead of hiding and drinking.

Yes, she is allowing him to win by giving up.

Finished. There was a lot going on here, but I didn't like this one as well as the others. Keera was on my nerves the whole book, lol. After she started taking action, she just felt sorry for herself and blamed herself for everything literally the entire book. The ending had some promise, though.

I'm almost finished. I did like that she finally fought back. Colin was the mole.

WTH! Killian and Riven are the same person. Wow! I didn't see that coming. I knew there was something he was keeping secret. I'm ready for Damian to die already.

I know, that blew me away! I had no idea. He kept his secrets well.

Yes, he did and it cost Nicholas mother's life.

Finished. I didn't like this one as much as the other two books. I was frustrated most of the book. The way it ended it seems like their will be another book.

Those were my exact thoughts. Keera annoyed me the whole book.

Most of the book I was really wanting it to hurry up and end. lol

I’m glad I’m not the only one, lol.
