Fantasy
Hunted by darkness. Haunted by loss. Forged in defiance.
Three years have passed since the horrific night when Arya Ravenstrike barely escaped with her life after the Nightstalker’s nazal murdered those she loved. Now on the run, she lives in the shadows, harbouring a secret that could unravel everything if the Nightstalker discovered it.
But she can’t run forever. Growing increasingly impatient, the Nightstalker will stop at nothing to annihilate Arya and her Sky Lords, even if it means invading her homeland, Dunidaen. Forced out of hiding to face the looming threat to her family, Arya is not the general she once was. Trapped by indecision and guilt, she struggles see a clear path forward.
To save those she loves, Arya must assume the mantle of the Stormrider heir and learn to become a Sky Lord powerful enough to bring down the Nightstalker.
Or all will be lost.

My Opinion
(5 / 5) If you’ve followed me for a while, you know my deep love for Lisa Cassidy’s books. She continues to amaze me when I still give each book in an entire series 5 stars. I always assume there’s no way this next book will be 5 stars again but nope, she surprises me each time.
Being book 3, I will only give a general opinion without giving the main plot away. But let me say, you’re in for a ride with this one! Arya continues to evade the Nightstalker and his men. However, this time, a secret threatens to upend everything. Arya is bold, determined, brave, stupid and most of all, real. I love this about her. I love that this character is making mistakes, sometimes guessing her way through problems but is always 100% devoted to the people and her friends. This one ends exactly how I worried it would and I almost yelled at the book, even though I knew why it happened. It’s a really good thing Cassidy can get these books out quickly cause I’m going to need the next one quickly!
Props again to Lisa Cassidy for bringing back my love of reading and reminding me why I do this!
