Synopsis
Elspeth and Ravyn have gathered most of the twelve Providence Cards, but the last, and most important one remains to be found: The Twin Alders.
If they are going to find it before the Solstice and cure the kingdom of the dark magic infecting it, they will need to journey beyond the dangerous mist-cloaked forest that surrounds their kingdom.
And the only one who can lead them there is the monster that shares Elspeth’s head. The Nightmare. And he’s not eager to share any longer.
Thoughts
This book was an epic conclusion to The Shepherd King duology. Every once in a while, I wish a series had been drawn out a bit more, and this is such an instance. This story truly felt magical. I enjoyed the magic system, the characters, the world-building. All of it. This is a series I will likely revisit in the future.

“I was the darkness and the darkness was me, and together we rolled with the tide, lulled toward a shore I could neither see nor hear. All was water—all was salt.”
