The Hourglass Throne

4.00/5.00

Alright so I totally expected this one to be a third book low. What strikes me most is the fact that the book suprised me again and again. Especially the amberson storyline.

But let's get to the good stuff. The final action sequence with rune and lady time was epic. Tower's death was a punch to the heart. I cried during when Rune screamed “Bring the Tower Back” and when he says “he was my father” and when he watched corbie's video. I love how there were so many precious moments between Rune and the Tower throughout the books. It was a wonderful experience to read through it. Not a lot of stories out there with father-son tropes when the son is gay (other than the ones about homophobia). Solid work, author (even though the tower is the most kill-offable character).

Addam and Rune is wonderful as ever. Brand is a hard character for me.. I'm not sure I like him so much.. but his role in the fall of the sun Thorne is quite the twist.

A great read, gripping story and lovable characters, and so emotional
