WHAT IF YOU’RE THE ONE WHO HAS TO DIE?
Now that the city of Atrine has been destroyed and Relos Var’s plan to free the dark god Vol Karoth has been revealed—the end of the world is closer than ever.
To buy time for humanity, Kihrin, Janel, and Thurvishar must convince the king of the Manol vané to perform an ancient ritual that will strip the vané of their immortality—a ritual that certain vané will do anything to prevent. Thus assassinating the ones bringing the news.
Worse, Kihrin must come to terms with the horrifying possibility that his connection to Vol Karoth is steadily growing in strength. But how can Kihrin hope to save anyone when he might turn out to be the greatest threat of them all?

The Memory of Souls Review:
To be honest, I haven’t had this much fun reading an epic fantasy series since A Song of Ice and Fire.
It’s so hard to write this review without giving away spoilers. To start off, I have to say that I truly love the author’s style of writing. She completely immerses you in the story and makes the characters so complex that you feel like rooting for all of them (including the ‘villains’). I also love the footnotes! My favorite team aka Kihrin, Janel and Thurvishar are back! As with the previous novels, I loved the snarky, sarcastic sense of humor between the characters.
Similar to the previous books, the world building, characters, situations and battles are simply amazing! New characters are introduced, and existing characters further detailed. You get Gods, Demons, dragons, immortals, undead, fae and much more! Moreover, the romance and politics in this story are more prominent that the previous books. In fact, what stood out in this book was how the characters grow and become complex in terms of their identity, sexuality and nature. At the same time, the author also raises the stakes as everyone starts to fight to save the end of the World. The battles are gripping and I was at the edge of my seat.
Truly, I loved this book so much that I honestly couldn’t find anything to criticize on. I laughed, cried, shocked, scared and entertained in every way. Also, I am so excited that two more books are coming as part of the series. I read the three books back to back over the last few days, and it is truly an unforgettable experience! Overall, even if you are not a fan of epic fantasy, you must read the series.
