Now it's up to Pyrgus to rescue his dear sister and queen, and save the Faerie Realm.

    " This book's structure was so weird. It spent HOW many pages building up the whole situation? Then it spent basically 10 pages (maybe even less?) wrapping it all up. The whole book was people going, "The Nighters did whaaa?!" "The Lighters did whaaa?!" "The demons did whaaa?!" "HUUUH?!" "OOOH I GET IT!" The End. It was odd. It almost felt like Brennan wanted to write this long well formed book... and then ran out of time at the end. Things wrapped up too fast. Not enough description, not enough dialogue, not enough character connections at the end. The first 7/8 of the book was fine and dandy... it's just the final 1/8th was too short. I feel like I just had this amazing climb up a mountain. Great scenery, and excited to get to the top to see what's there... then at the top there's the bottom again. Makes you go "...what?" Right? Yeah.. that's basically how I felt at the end of this book. "

    " Thought it was amazing. I liked how in the end she killed Beleth, but a part of me wanted her to sign the contract and for something to happen that has to do with how she would have to obey her husband in all ways. "

    " To me, this one was just meh. I've read the others in the series but couldn't wait to finish this one. I also don't feel inclined to read the last in the series and see how it ends. I remember the others being funnier so I was disappointed to find this one did not follow suit. "
