Loonigirl I completely agree with you this series has been phenomenal so far and I simply cannot wait for book 4 Queen of Song and Souls and see how Ellie and Rain’s story moves forward. I almost wish I hadn’t discovered this series yet so I didn’t have to wait until June 09 for the next installment I just don’t know how I will make it!!!!!

PS your review is amazing you capture the essence of the book enticing me to read it all over again.

Brie, you mentioned cliffhangers and I have to add that this is one series that does them well, simply because there is so much meat in each book. Things do get resolved or the plot advances significantly or characters grow noticeably – there’s so much there that a cliffhanger doesn’t feel as devastating in these books. And because we are given so many satisfying elements in each book, it’s much easier to believe and trust that the next book will deliver too. I’m grateful to Wilson for not relying solely on a shocking, gut-wrenching cliffhanger to lead us on to the next book.

What a great review! I agree with every word, especially the part about not having any idea what was coming next and then being amazed and awed by what did.

I love this book SO much.

Thank you loonigrrl! WOW! I can’t wait to read this book! And it sounds so good. I enjoyed the first two so much. Yes, June is a long wait, but I have a feeling it will be worth it :)

I’m not a fantasy reader by nature as I O.D.’d on them when I was a kid. Most fantasy romance doesn’t zing me either. I felt that since Lord of the Fading Lands was snagging so many awards I’d give it a try. I’m happy I did. Ms. Wilson’s descriptive abilities are incredible. The stories have enough weight to play in both the fantasy and romance genres. The characters possess depth and experience growth, and that isn’t always the case in either genre. I’m eagerly awaiting King of Sword & Sky and bummed I have to wait until June for the final book in the series.

Great review, Loonigrrl! This series is one of my favorites to date.

For those of you who have read the series thus far, would you recommend waiting until June and reading all three books back-to-back? Or are they sufficiently stand-aloney to read two now and wait for the third without being driven crazy with the what ifs?

The books individually are not very stand alone-ish, though, those of us who read from the beginning did read them alone and waited until the next ones release. If you want the story in full, then I’d say wait until closer till the release date of the last book which is in June 09. If you don’t mind a little cliff hanger then read the first three now.
