Nine years hence, the once-fearful Owen has grown into a confident young man, mentored in battle and politics by Duke Horwath and deeply in love with his childhood friend, the duke's granddaughter.

I really did love this read. I loved how to this book built on the world but also expanded the magic system in this read. I also really loved how owen grew in this book. I became so emotionally invested in both own and evie realtionship. I also loved the new characters that we meet and how the world was built. It was super fun read with a nice balance between the war elements that i don't always love and the politices that I adored. The end of this book was such a hard read for ship but I am really excited for book 3. ( )

Not my favorite Wheeler to date. This is the first time I feel like the middle novel of one of his trilogies suffered from pacing-fatigue. At times, we went so fast I couldn't keep track of all the characters and places, and at other times, I wondered if we'd get moving at all. Still, and always, the historical research that Wheeler puts into informing his plot and characters is beautiful and deeply appreciated. This was still an enjoyable read, just not my favorite to date.

Definitely worth a read, and definitely looking forward to book 3! ( )

So Good

I Love Jeff Wheeler's books and I was slow getting into this Kingfountain series, but this series is getting even better.

After this book in the series, I really don't like King Severn, which I already didn't like him before and some upsetting hard things revealed in this book.

I'm excited to check out the next book, but I'm also nervous about how the story will continue to go.

If you haven't checked Jeff Wheeler's books out, it should definitely be next on your tbr list 🙂. ( )

Spring 2018, audiobook:

I follow the Goodreads deals of the day and finally could not pass it up when I saw that all six books in this series were on sale for one day at $1.99 a piece. I snatched up the whole set, praying I wasn't making a terrible mistake, and, thankfully, I definitely was not. I'm going to end up reviewing the trilogies as wholes as I've just been moving through them so quickly.

Book One - I loved baby Owen, and the prisoner, and the slow reveal on this being a King Arthur tale. I love the quotes between the sections, and how long it takes to meet the person speaking in all of them. I love the tiny playmates and how much they both get along, don't, and inspire who each other will become.

Book Two - A leap, but an understandable one at least. The straining-to-be love story we knew was coming has arrived, but I am confused because we are now steadfastly loyal to the king after undoing his ruses last time. I did love the reveal of all of Owen's actual powers. I thought the ending, and Evie's conversation about why she had to go was incredibly contrived compared to any of her earlier scenes.

Book - ...especially when Evie's first scene in this book is everything the other one wasn't. Which was a large problem I had in this book. Evie seemed very much not Evie anymore. Which I say while deeply loving The Lady of the Fountain (/Lake), and Owen's second love story. The reveal of the board, and the will or won't it happen takedown of the king winding gyre story is so intense. ( )
