After Amora’s powers are cursed away, her Kingdom begins to question her ability to be their queen. Amora sets out with her crew and some new faces to find a mythological artifact that can break the curse on her soul and the curse on her bloodline.
All the Stars and Teeth was a solid read for me when it came out last year. It felt a bit overhyped, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. My main complaint was that the pacing was a little slow throughout and then there was too much crammed into the last few chapters. I didn’t feel like that was as much of an issue in All the Tides of Fate. I was hooked from page one all the way through the epilogue.
I feel like the plot flowed well. The reveals and twists were able to surprise me most of the time without feeling like they came completely out of left field. The end did definitely have some sudden twists that felt a little rushed, but it was so much improved from the first book.
I still love Amora, Vataea, Ferrick, and Bastian as characters. I think that Adalyn Grace excels at writing characters and their relationships. I also loved the addition of Shanty to the crew. I feel like her storyline didn’t resolve and was left a little awkwardly open ended, but she was such a fun, spunky character.
I highly recommend picking up this book even if you aren’t sure if you would. I probably wouldn’t have bothered to read it if I hadn’t gotten the arc, but I’m glad I did.
