Sheila does it againšŸ”„ I couldn’t put this one down. I fell in love with her writing after reading Song of the Dark Wood, and I loved this one just as much! A Legacy of Stars is a next-gen spin off from her Lost Gods series, but you don’t have to know anything about the series to be fully immersed in it. There are some spoilers for the series, so be mindful if you haven’t read it. 

I’m a sucker for deadly trials and forced bonds😩 I will never get enough of them and this had BOTH! The trials were deadly, intense, and full of action that left me on the edge of my seat and frankly, stressed š˜µš˜©š˜¦ š˜§š˜¶š˜¤š˜¬ out. Stella and Teddy were the definition of ā€œlove and hate are different sides of the same coinā€ and I ate it UPšŸ‘šŸ»šŸ‘šŸ» Prank wars, ā€œI hate I can’t control myself around youā€, and the kind of love you get from building and holding on through the ugly. 

The rebellion from the Sons of Endros going on in the middle of all of this added to the stress and already high tension that Teddy and Stella had to deal with. I was just as interested in who was behind everything and who could be part of SoE. I never saw it coming even though I should have, and I hope this isn’t the last we see of SoE because I still have so many questions about that! 

Thank you so much to the author and FaRoFeb for the gifted copy!
