Synopsis: Goodreads

With the Heart Crown now in her possession, Lor must navigate the dangers of being an heir on the run, knowing more than one power-hungry ruler is after her blood. When she returns to Aphelion to unlock her magic and recover her family’s legacy, it becomes clearer than ever that all that’s gold doesn’t sparkle. No stranger to battles, she continues to fight her attraction to the Aurora Prince, understanding this might be the one she finally loses.
As the past mixes with the present, Lor uncovers the truth about the Artefacts and their role in shaping her destiny. Now, her future hangs in the balance, leaving her closer than ever to getting everything she’s ever wanted… or losing it all forever.

Review:

Fate of the Sun King is the third book in the Artefacts of Ouranos series, and as such there may be spoilers in the review for the first two books in the series. Spoilers for Fate of the Sun King will be hidden as normal.

I really enjoyed the start and the end of Fate of the Sun King. But there was a lot of lore being added into this book and with it came a lot of additional POVs and looks into the past, and with that came a lot of questions and moments where I was kind of confused or bored in the middle. I’m sad to say that because I had hope that I would enjoy the final books in the series even more because the ending of the second book definitely suggested things were going to be getting a bit crazy going forward…

And they definitely did, get crazy I mean. However, it was just surrounded by a lot of stuff that even though I can see how it is relevant, just took me out of the story every time we came to them. But, despite that, the present day chapters still had me sat! If this installment didn’t include the past chapters, I would have read this so much faster. Becuase the situation that Lor and Nadir (and the rest of their crew) find themselves in is getting more and more intense!

One of the surprise new POVs we had was Gabriel! And oh boy I didn’t realise how much I missed him until he showed up again. I loved everything he added to this book, and I’m cheering for him…
Following the end of Fate of the Sun King, I am certainly nervous for a number of characters and I am glad that I will only have to wait to find out what the conclusion is, if I make that choice myself, to read something else first.

I really like Nisha’s writing, and I don’t know if I have said it yet or not, but I will definitely be checking out her other work to see if anything piques my fancy! Because I really think she has a lot of positives about her work!!

So did I super love Fate of the Sun King, no I didn’t. But I loved more than I didn’t, and so I can’t wait to read book four.

“She’s not just my mate. Not just the woman I’ve fallen in love with. She is every star in the sky and every wish I’ve ever wanted.”

One of my March Prompts was to read a sequel, a book 2! So, I very excitedly chose Glint! Because after the ending of Gild, I just needed to know more (and to know if my heart would heal from the ending!). I’m so glad I picked it up, because I really did enjoy it. I saw @roni_readsbooks do a March book stack, and I said oooo looks like fun! You know what I didn’t expect? To struggle. Mostly on A because I told myself I shouldn’t do a title that is ‘A something something’ you know? The Artefacts of Ouranos series has been such a pleasant surprise!! When I abandoned my TBR to pick the first book up in February, I didn’t foresee myself abandoning March’s TBR too to continue reading it! The Selection by Kiera Cass was a trilogy I first experienced as an audiobook, but fell in love with and so re read or re listened to, often. Especially throughout the years where I wasn’t reading much. These three books constantly felt like a big hug, they became comfort reads.
