Publisher Description

Returning to Terre d'Ange, Moirin finds the royal family broken. Wracked by unrelenting grief at the loss of his wife, Queen Jehanne, King Daniel is unable to rule. Prince Thierry, leading an expedition to explore the deadly jungles of Terra Nova, is halfway across the world. And three-year-old Desirée is a vision of her mother: tempestuous, intelligent, and fiery, but desperately lonely and a vulnerable pawn in a game of shifting political allegiances.

As tensions mount, King Daniel asks that Moirin become Desirée's oath-sworn protector. Navigating the intricate political landscape of the Court proves a difficult challenge, and when dire news arrives from overseas, the spirit of Queen Jehanne visits Moirin in a dream and bids her undertake an impossible quest.

Another specter from the past also haunts Moirin. Travelling with Thierry in the New World is Raphael de Mereliot, her manipulative former lover. Years ago, Raphael forced her to help him summon fallen angels in the hopes of acquiring mystical gifts and knowledge. It was a disastrous effort that nearly killed them, and Moirin must finally bear the costs of those bitter mistakes.

"It was an enjoyable end to the series, but it was nowhere near as interesting as the last 2 trilogies. I would recommend the first 6 books to friends, but not necessarily this last series. Although I enjoyed them, I feel that they are very different than the first trilogy set."

— Lauren (4 out of 5 stars)

Quotes

  • Carey's fans will enjoy the straightforward heroics and plotting after the previous volume's heavy angst.

    " I couldn't even finish this. Just didn't care for this character at all. No pathos or anything. Loved Phaedre and Imriel much more. "

    " I always enjoy Carey's books, and like always, this one was a good read. It was fun, suspenseful, and fast paced. That being said, I didn't love it. I could never get into Morin and Bao's adventures the way I did Phedre's and Imriel's. The books in this series somehow lacked the passion and poignancy. "

    " I'm going to miss this goofy universe. This last installment was a bit more cozy than most of them. Moirin doesn't often have to decide or figure much out on her own. Bao causes absolutely no trouble (to make up for the past, perhaps) and everything comes full circle. "

    " Finally finished this trilogy, a more gentle, less inspiring tale than the other 2 trilogies in this series. A good read, but I could put these books down, something I found difficult with the other six. "
