It’s Herne and Ember’s wedding and as they make their place
in Annwn and Ember is learning what it takes to be a goddess. But life is in
flux for the Wild Hunt gang as well as Ember and Herne. Happily Ever After isn’t
as easy as you think when you become a goddess and life as you knew it ends up
totally different.
ANTLERED CROWN is a wonderful swan song to this portion of
the Wild Hunt Story Arc and I was thrilled to see how Ember and the rest of the
gang dealt with the blows after the Father and Mother of all dragons fought.
With Ember learning to be a goddess as well as trying to settle in Herne’s
world on Annwn, life has changed for many of them and happily ever after can
mean so many different things to many people.
With Ms. Galenorn’s trademark storytelling, the reader delves
into the world of the Wild Hunt and finds themselves transported to Annwn and
what happens next for everyone. Even though this story in the series is a
novella and shorter than the other Wild Hunt books, it packs a lot into it and
I was excited to see how Ember navigated being a goddess and what it all
entailed. The story picks up weeks away from Ember and Herne’s wedding and that
was just as wonderful to beheld. Lots of heat and romance between Herne and
Ember but we also got to meet many new faces that will play in the spin-off
series, The Hedge Dragons and Night Queen respectively. The story is fast paced
but includes lots of the characters you have grown to love in the series, and
we get updates about Kipa and Raven as well as what is coming for the Wild Hunt
agency itself. I loved how the author tied up all the loose ends and revealed a
little of where she is going in the spin-off series. I can’t wait to see where
those go and we will still see our favorite Wild Hunt characters but as
secondary characters instead of the main players. The writing flows swiftly and
the weaves a spell around you as you navigate the world of gods and goddesses
with Ember, and I know I am not the only one to say more please to Ms.
Galenorn.
ANTLERED CROWN delivers a fast-paced ride from start to
finish and I look forward to seeing where the author goes next. If you enjoy
the paranormal and urban fantasy stories, this series is for you though I
highly recommend reading from the beginning of the series all the way to ANTLERED
CROWN and be ready to fall in love with a cast of characters that will
leave you breathless.
