Analeigh Sbrana
From the author of Lore of the Wilds comes the exciting and passionate conclusion, as Lore navigates Fae magic amid looming dangers that threaten to destroy her world. Lore Alemeyu wakes up to discover she’s on a ship in the middle of the ocean. Held prisoner and with no way to escape, she’s faced with a dire set of circumstances… A crew that’s distrustful of Lore’s magic capabilities… Her betrayal by a Fae she thought she could trust… A dangerous quest for the sun book, which, if placed in the wrong hands, will make the Alytherian Fae even more powerful. Lore must navigate threats on the ship and beyond, into the ocean’s magical and mysterious depths, in order to find the sun book herself and help free the humans. All the while, Lore can’t help but feel the intense pull of one Fae male who has been helping her all along. But is she willing to risk her human heart for creatures that have burned her in the past, and jeopardize her people’s future?

That being said, this one just felt disjointed and seemingly lost the plot. The true nail in the coffin was realizing how poorly edited this was. I just could not push through this as hard as I tried.
To be clear - I am aware this is an unedited proof. But this was beyond the standard level. Along with that, a majority of what I am talking about should have been caught in an earlier round for continuity and flow, not just grammar and spelling mistakes. It read like a first draft vs a copy that is far enough along for advance reader copies.
The plot of this book seems as though it should have been a different story vs continuing the one she initially had.
The tone and language in the book seemingly shifted drastically from the first book to this one. The sex scene was far more in detail than the first book and felt rushed and didn’t fit the tone of the story.
This author and story have so much potential, I truly think this is an editor fault as they should have been the one to catch all the disjointed issues.
As I did DNF this, I cannot say as to if it got better as the story went on, but at 50% I just couldn’t push through anymore.
That being said, I am excited to see what the author puts out next but this one just was not for me.
