How do I give this book/series all the stars in the world? No review I write will come close to how much I adore the characters and the love they have for each other.
I'd like to read 100 more of these.
The audiobook narration is still the best ✨
The Hourglass Throne was definitely on the same level as the hanged man for me. The story is very well-crafted and kept me hooked throughout the entire book. There were also a lot of clarifying moments in this book this book that closed open loops throughout the trilogy. Looking forward to book 4!
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
