Wrapping up this trilogy, Adeyemi not only brings us back to Zélie, Tzain, Inan, and Amari, and the land of Orïsha, but also introduces us to the Tribes of Baldeírik and their power-greedy King Baldyr, as well as the New Gaīans and their land-based magic.
When King Baldyr overwrites Zélie’s magic, stripping her of her connection with the dead and her Reaper powers, she must find a way to defeat Baldyr and his tribesman or risk Orïsha AND New Gaīa falling to his control. A fast-paced journey with new characters, and some faces we know from the previous two novels, this final installment will keep readers turning the pages to know how things will end.
Some of the ending wasn’t super satisfying for me, but that’s okay! It sounds like Adeyemi may have struggled to finish the series 💜
