... neither of them were given to trust. Both of them had been twisted up by the plain facts of their existence. The past could turn you into a strip of paper with a single side, so that comfort and vulnerability slid away down invisible channels and couldn't be grasped. [loc. 4436]
Concluding the trilogy begun in A Marvellous Light and continued in A Restless Truth, A Power Unbound focuses on Lord Hawthorn (he of the dead sister and dark past, more familiarly known as Jack Alston) and Alan Ross (journalist, pornographer and revolutionary), and their role in the increasingly urgent hunt for the final component of the Last Contract -- the tripartite physical representation (coin, cup and knife) of a contract with the fae, which makes magic possible. Jack and Alan, together with the Blyth siblings Robin and Maud, Maud's lover the dashing Violet Debenham, Robin's lover Edwin Courcey, and various free-thinking representatives of the magical establishment, are opposed by Jack's cousin George -- who turns out to be responsible for many of Jack's current woes -- and his cohorts. George, and many others, believe that dark times are coming* and that power should be concentrated in the hands of those best qualified to wield it: themselves. Jack's political and social tendencies are more Liberal, while Alan hates anyone with unearned power who uses it against others.
Power and privilege are very much in the forefront of this novel: the vulnerability of those who don't have privilege, and thus no protection against injustice; the difference between real-world power imbalances and how those imbalances play out in sexual fantasies (Alan is a pornographer); the ways in which privilege can be abused, or used to improve the lives of those without influence; ways of acquiring privilege, licit or otherwise. These issues are woven through a complex plot full of reversals, unexpected romantic and emotional developments, and explorations of the nature and origin of British -- or is it specifically English? -- magic. There are several excellent female characters (I'm particularly fond of the Countess of Cheetham, Jack's mother, and Adelaide Morrissey, as well as the Grimm), some vivid depictions of London life in the Edwardian era, and a truly unsettling wardrobe. Marske provides a tense, surprising and (eventually) very satisfactory conclusion to the trilogy: I enjoyed it immensely, and now want to reread all three novels! And I'm eager to see what she does next...
NB: beware of Amazon's subtitling: "A Power Unbound: a spicy, magical historical romp (The Last Binding Book 3)". Dear Amazon (and others), please never use the word 'romp' for anything except light-hearted erotica, which this is not: yes, there is quite a lot of explicit M/M sex, but there is also a great deal of serious plot, peril and unpleasantness.
Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for the advance review copy, in exchange for this full honest review. UK publication date is 09 NOV 2023.
*The novel is set in 1909...

This was a generally satisfying end to The Last Binding Trilogy. I loved the first book but was less keen on A Restless Truth and this one sort of fell in between the two.
I loved the plot and the way that it was resolved. The magic system was really well thought out and it was interesting to find out more about the origins of the magic and the role of the fae in allowing humans to use it. I thought the way that magic had consequences for the person wielding it was portrayed was excellent
This is the book where we finally get to know Lord Hawthorne and see how his character has become as remote and unfeeling as he appears. His character ARC and growth during this book was probably my favourite part. Seeing him become the caring elder brother and lover that he should have always been was lovely. I loved the introduction of Alan Ross in the previous book and really liked the development of his relationship with Hawthorne. It wasn’t quite enemies to lovers but the dialogue had that same sparky feel to it.
Finally having all six main characters interacting in this book was great but it was a shame that we saw so little of them in the early part. I really enjoyed the final section where all of them had an equally important role to play.
I’m not a fan of explicit sex scenes so there was definitely some skipping of pages in this one. I couldn’t really see why some of the passages needed to be so long as they didn’t do anything to move the plot or the characters forward in any way.
This was an enjoyable fantasy series with some really imaginative and well thought out aspects.
Huge thanks to NetGalley and the publishers, Pan MacMillan for providing my ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Having the opportunity to read A Power Unbound in advance of release was truly special to me. I absolutely adored the first two books in this trilogy with both of them being some of my favourite books I’ve read this year. I’ve been waiting on tenterhooks for this book and sent it to kindle as soon as I could.
I was not disappointed. This book is wonderful. The warmth of found family runs through it, and all our favourites from the prior books are back for the adventure. A Power Unbound really gives us an opportunity to get to know Jack more, to see past the sharp and difficult man we met in the first book, and to understand his story.
The plot is gripping, and I loved that things weren’t neatly and tidily resolved! The end wasn’t what I expected at all, but was truly satisfying.
The biggest disappointment is that this book marks the end of the trilogy. I would love to see more of the new state of things.
An incredible read, and one I will definitely return to.

This was the PERFECT ending to this series. I love this series so much 😭 Honestly one of my all-time top favourite fantasy series.
I love how this series draws on classical formulas (drawing room mystery, Wodehousian caper, etc) but gives it a thoroughly modern twist. These books are original, diverse, funny, devastating, and astoundingly well written. If you like fantasy, magic, historical romance, and queer love stories you MUST read these books asap.
Now, to this book in particular: I kind of fell in love with Jack, aka. Lord Hawthorn, in the second book. He’s cruel in the first book, and in the second we see that that cruelty is rooted in pain and trauma. He’s sarcastic, and haughty, but we soon see that he’s got a good heart and he’s fiercely loyal. He’s also very funny and has a filthy mouth.

Alan is the perfect foil for the elite Hawthorn. He’s poor, hardworking, smart, and will do anything for his family even if it means lying, cheating, and stealing. We first meet him as a thief aboard the Lyric in book 2, and his chemistry with Hawthorn was pretty immediately apparent.
I loved seeing the story wrap up here. Getting Robin and Edwin (our couple from book 1) and Maud and Violet (book 2) all working together was so satisfying.
The story resolution was great as well. This book, like the others, is as much a commentary on class and the treatment of marginalised communities as it is about magic. I thought the ending was very satisfying and fit the overall feel of the series perfectly.

my thanks to Netgalley, Tor and Freya Marske for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.
This book was just okay for me. I wasn't the biggest fan of the characters, and I don't think any of the books really compare to A Marvellous Light for me. What I did think was done well was the cnc aspect of the sexual relationship.

Back in Edwardian England with the gang of the Last Contract!
Aaaah Lord Hawthorn, how I love him so I am very glad this book was his because he deserves a hea! His guardianship/brotherly actions warmed my heart.
'Three months ago an unmagical girl had accosted him on a ship, inserted herself inconveniently into his life, and forced him back into magical society and magical conspiracy.'
Enter Alan Ross, writer and thief who we met in A Restless Truth. Oh I loved him too! He was real and he was just what Jacky boy aka Lord Hawthorn needed! Alan's had a hard life and seeing him fit in with the gang was heartwarming.
So in short, there was action, found family, magic, basically enemies to lovers and a lot of spice! An honourable mention to the Elsie part, waaaaaaah!
A great conclusion to the series!

This final installment of Fraya Marske's fun series never quite recaptures the magic of the first volume. Our heroes continue to hunt the final piece of the Last Contract in a bid to stop Edwin's older brother from stealing the magic of all of Britain's magicians. This time we focus on Jack Alston, the irascible Lord Hawthorn who reluctantly assisted Maud and Edith in the second book. Hawthorn, formerly a magician, has lost his magic and the reason is bound up with the mysterious decline and death of his twin sister. Along for the ride is Alan Ross, the thief-cum-journalist with a side hustle in pornography whom we met aboard the ship in the last book. Theirs is the relationship which runs alongside the main plot and unfortunately, much like Maud/Edith, it doesn't ring as true or convincing and the Robin/Edwin love story in A Marvelous Light. The sex frankly becomes a frustrating distraction from the actual plot rather than forming a part of it and these means the plot ends up feeling rushed. And after investing the time in getting to know the other characters, it was sad that they were little more than sett dressing here. While the first novel was well-balanced and the characters well-rounded the same hasn't been achieved with the latter. The resolution to the great threat that has been building isn't given sufficient attention and ends up lacking the emotional impact and satisfying resolution that I hoped for. Still, it's fun despite the flaws.

Marske creates a wonderful world of magic and develops her characters beautifully. A fantastic third book in this series.

A Power Unbound by Freya Marske is an enthralling and spellbinding conclusion to The Last Binding trilogy, set in an alternative Edwardian England where secrets, magic, and unexpected alliances take centre stage. As the final instalment in this captivating series, it pulls out all the stops, delivering a story that's equal parts steamy romance, intricate mystery, and heart-pounding fantasy.
At the heart of the story is Jack Alston, Lord Hawthorn, who yearns for a quiet, safe life but is reluctantly drawn back into the world of magic after the threat of a dangerous ritual puts every magician in Britain at risk. Jack's complex character, marked by the loss of his twin sister and his renunciation of magic, adds depth to the narrative as he becomes enmeshed in a thrilling adventure.
The world-building in A Power Unbound is nothing short of exceptional. Marske's alternative Edwardian England is a magical puzzle-box that readers will delight in exploring. The London townhouse, with all its enchanting and enigmatic qualities, serves as a vibrant backdrop to the story's events.
One of the standout elements of the novel is the dynamic between Jack and Alan Ross, a writer and thief. Their relationship is a rollercoaster of emotions, with passion, conflict, and undeniable chemistry. Alan is the embodiment of what Jack despises, making their interactions all the more compelling. This tension adds depth to the character-driven narrative and keeps readers eagerly turning the pages.
As the plot unfolds, the stakes rise, and the story takes a dark and dramatic turn. With murder, magic, and romance entwined in a web of secrets, A Power Unbound keeps readers on the edge of their seats, never quite sure what to expect next. The climactic events that unfold on Jack's family estate bring the series to a breathtaking and unexpected conclusion.
Freya Marske's writing is both lyrical and evocative, bringing the world and characters to life in vivid detail. Her storytelling prowess shines brightly in this final chapter, making it a captivating and unforgettable read.
In conclusion, A Power Unbound is a mesmerising five-star conclusion to The Last Binding trilogy. Freya Marske has woven a tale filled with magic, mystery, and romance that will leave readers thoroughly satisfied and craving for more. This book is a must-read for fans of the series and an enticing invitation for those new to Marske's enchanting world.

What a great end to this trilogy! I'm really sad to see these characters go, but I think Marske portrayed a fitting ending for them, and I will definitely be keeping an eye out for whatever she writes next. I particularly enjoyed getting to meet Robin's sister Maud in the second book, A Restless Truth, and I was very excited to see her, and her partner Violet, return for this final installment. The group dynamics were so much fun to read, and while the overarching plotline of the Last Contract was at full force in this last book, I have to say I much preferred reading about everyone's interactions with one another, and the budding relationship between Jack and Alan. There were times where I got a bit confused, and when a lot of secondary characters were introduced I had to pay a lot of attention to remember who was related to who, but that didn't take away from my overall enjoyment and I was so glad to see a happy ending for everyone.

Freya Marske is bringing out the fireworks in this finish to The Last Binding trilogy!
In A Power Unbound, which is probably my favourite of the three books, we follow events from Jack Alston, Lord Hawthorn’s, and Alan Ross’ perspectives. Jack Alston renounced magic and turned his back on his family and magical society after the death of his twin sister. He’d be content to lead a safe, comfortable life far from all of this, if it weren’t for the threat posed by the Last Contract.
At the outset of the novel, Jack is reluctantly drawn back into that world he has left behind. He is living at Spinet House, a magical London town house inherited by Violet, together with the Blyth siblings and their partners. The group are trying to track down the third and final piece of the Last Contract before their enemies can get their hands on it. Much to Jack’s grief, they need the help of journalist, writer and thief Alan Ross, who is in it for the money only, and who likes to argue with Jack at each turn.
Alan’s hot-headed insults of the aristocracy, parried by Jack’s dry and sarcastic responses, were an absolute highlight. The dynamics between the ‘workhouse brat with delusions of vocabulary’ and the ‘overbred sh*t-sucking pr*ck’ was delightful, passionate, and at times downright filthy. Expect whiplash from the back and forth between emotional confessions and spicy scenes.
I loved how both couples from the previous novels played essential parts in the plot and therefore were prominently involved in the resolution to this series, rather than just getting the odd cameo appearance. Seeing the two couples alongside each other was brilliant: it takes a while for the reserved Edwin and the deliberately extravagant Violet to warm to each other. Whereas Robin and Edwin were absent for large parts of A Restless Truth due to the novel being set aboard the Lyric, this time, they all start out at Spinet House together, initially in their search for the final piece of the Last Contract, and eventually in a race against George Bastoke and Walter Courcey’s plans that threaten all of British magical society.
Marske has created a colourful cast of characters, ranging from reserved to infuriating, stubborn, and arrogant, and I absolutely love all of them. I adored the sumptuous settings of the magical houses, the contrast between Alan’s working class background and Jack’s inherited privilege, the extravagant party, and the dash of grand theft thrown into the mix. It’s an easy 5 stars from me – if you haven’t yet picked up this series, I can highly recommend it!

Thanks to Netgalley and Pan Macmillan for my arc.
After reading and loving the first two books I couldn't wait to get to this. Especially when I found out the main couple would be Jack and Alan. (Although do be aware that the two of them have multiple names - Alan Ross / Alanso Rossi, Lord Hawthorn / Hawthorn / Jack Alston etc)
Their fierce animosity at the beginning did throw me a little. After reading 'A Restless Truth' I thought their relationship had a slightly more stable ground so that put me on the back foot slightly.
However I really enjoyed how they challenged each other whilst ultimately having the same morales, despite coming from very different backgrounds.
I do think Markse tried to cram a bit too much into this book though. We had a new relationship which developed at a much slower speed that the previous books whilst also trying to feature all the previous characters and also come to a conclusion with The Last Binding. I definitely wanted to see more of Violet, Maud, Robin & Edwin.
I love reading books that feature kink, when handled well, and I can see why some people found it a bit jarring going from the other books to this, but in my opinion the other books did explore kink just in a more subtle way. I will say that I was a little wary of the power imbalance of the roleplay but I think it was handled well, and the consent and safe words were clear before anything happened.
Overall I enjoyed this book and the series as a whole but I did want a bit more fluff and sweet moments between Jack and Alan. I also wanted a bit more insight into a certain sort of 3 way relationship (?). But I would definitely read the series again as the characters are all fantastic.
CW: death, blood, sexual content, suicide, child death

I really thought I would enjoy this more than I did. A Marvellous Light is one of my favourite fantasy books ever, and I was so excited to get a book with Edwin and Robin as an active part again.
I also did enjoy A Restless Truth, although the format on the boat wasn’t really for me, and I loved Hawthorn as a character so was excited to see more.
Sadly, the book took far too long to get going - repeating things we already know from books one and two but in excessive detail. It was well over 100 pages before I felt the book really got going and that’s something I’m only really willing to accept when it’s a first in a series and we need that world building/set up.
I also find it a slightly odd choice to add in explicitly kink content in a third book when the other two didn’t have this, it’s quite a step up and something previous readers may not really be looking for. I do think master-slave/cnc kink is a risky decision, but will note I think the consent part is handled very well - we never forget they are role playing and their perspectives both show they are willing participants. But this certainly won’t be for everyone.
I really just wasn’t invested in their romance as much as I expected to be, and the plot felt repetitious. I also wasn’t particularly satisfied with the ending. Very disappointing as I was so excited for this one!!!!
I also raised concerns with the publisher regarding a passage where Violet glamours a character of colour to appear white, and the character expresses a wish to stay that way. I don’t think this is appropriate sentiment for a white author to have in their book, and I desperately hope it has been removed in the final version.

Well, at least I made it through the trilogy, but just as with the second book I found this one a little less entertaining than the first in the series. As I'd suspected would be the case, A Power Unbound focusses on two supporting characters from the previous volume, which wasn't hard to see coming.
The basic premise of the whole series is that there's a group of magical artefacts and possession of those is being sought by a bunch of morally-challenged magicians who think they should be in charge, even as the world in which they're living is changing (women and non-white people being allowed to do things, what's the world coming to?). This particular volume seeks to both tie up all the loose ends of that storyline and also deal with a plotline about the relationship between Hawthorn and his jobbing journalist antagonist/love interest Alan - someone elsewhere commented on how deeply unsexy that first name is and unfortunately I tend to agree.
Striking the balance between the main (fantasy) plot and romantic interludes is pretty hard to do consistently and, for me at least, A Power Unbound tends not to manage it. Alan also has a sideline in writing erotica and that's used as a bit of a springboard for a good number of the intimate scenes between him and Hawthorn, which some may find uncomfortable reading.
Like anything else, romance needs to push the plot forward and here it doesn't seem to do that, prompting me to skim a few pages here and there. There's a lot going on, as there are many loose ends to be tied up in terms of the main plot, and it feels to me as though the author really wanted to write a romance against a fantasy backdrop (given the focus on every relationship detail) rather than a fantasy trilogy with romance sub-plots. Alas, I prefer the latter, so this is unlikely to be a series I'll come back to in the future...
I received a free copy of this book from the publisher, via Netgalley. This is my honest review of the book in question.

Magical action and adventure, and a queer romance that could with a race to seize a power that could destroy the foundation of magic in Britain. I hadn’t read the first two books and found I was missing too much of the back story to really enjoy this book. On that basis this wasn’t a book for me, but I see from other reviews those that have read the other books really enjoyed this thrilling finale. Thank you to Pan Macmillan and NetGalley for the ARC. The views expressed are all mine, freely given.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for this early copy of A Power Unbound by Freya Marske. This was a joyous, action filled and hilarious read that I can't wait to share with my students.

Rewind three years with me to December 2020. My much missed postie had delivered me my Illumicrate box and I swallowed up A Marvellous Light and was desperate for the next book.I ravenously gobbled up my ARC of book two and was delighted to be granted access to this eARC by the publisher.
This is a powerhouse finale that truly delivers both enough of Robin and Edwin, and Maud and Violet whilst also weaving the tantalising threads from the last book between Alan and Lord Hawthorne.
By far the spiciest book yet, (but given what Alan sold Maud ARE YOU REALLY SURPRISED?), I loved watching these proud, stubborn and barely surviving on sardonic comments or hard grift men slowly learn to let the other in is genuinely heart warming once they stop playing games and kidding themselves they aren't in love. I love the way that the little queer found family they've forged over three books is the reason they have each other.
Oh and the MAGIC. The stakes are just as high as ever and I was utterly gripped almost forgetting to plan lessons because I couldn't put it down, I had to know what happened next as they fought to save the last contract. The world building is so lush and Freya Marske elegantly weaves threads and strands she's dangled in front of us since the start into a gorgeous tapestry.
And Adelaide Morrissey is still a queen. Even more so now. I adore her and the ending she gets.
I can wholeheartedly recommend the entire series!

I screamed when I was approved for an ARC for this book. I had already been waiting for months, slowly going mad. This trilogy! It's one of my favourite book series of all time, and the final book might just be the best one.
I read book two before the first one, so I first met Hawthorn on the ship, and truthfully, he was already my favourite character before A Power Unbound came out. I shipped him and Ross before I even knew what the third book would be about. Freya Marske, I see you. I noticed the seeds you were planting. She is such a FANTASTIC writer. The things that were mentioned in previous books that ended up coming back? The plot twists that made me gasp out loud? I ate it up.
This group of characters are all so loveable, and I was delighted to finally have all of them gathered together in the same book and in the same scene. Robin and Edwin continue to be absolutely adorable, and Violet continues to be an icon, and Maud continues to be exactly the girl that an icon like that needs. Not to mention, Hawthorn. My very tall baby. The trauma he's been through, the persona he puts on, the loveable, kind softie and dad friend that he is underneath. And Ross, the absolute scoundrel/angel that has stolen my heart. Their relationship is so beautiful and caring, and evolves so naturally. Their chemistry is crazy, and they work so well together.
The scenes and lines that are supposed to be funny are always so hilarious. There are moments between characters or with all of them as a group that are just adorable and so heartwarming. And then there are moments that could make you cry because of how emotional and raw they are.
Full disclosure: I still do not fully understand the plot. I'm not sure what exactly happened in this book. I just do not care, because that's not what I'm here for. I'm here for these characters, and I got everything I wanted.
Now, time to be very sad for the rest of my life because this was the last book and I no longer have anything to look forward.

As a devout fan of A Marvelous Light who had been disappointed with A Restless Truth, my expectations were tempered going into this final installment of the trilogy. However, I found it to be a satisfying, if meek, conclusion to the series. I found the pacing to be quite jarring, but characters I was previously ambivalent towards were fleshed out and given depth. Overall, I was pleased with the outcome of the series but feel that the true joy of The Last Binding remains solely within the first novel.

This book grabbed hold of me, and didn't let go for 2 days.
A Power Unbound is the 3rd book in The Last Binding series by Freya Marske. Each book in the series focuses on a different couple, with an underlying magical plot that follows through the series.
Marske has the kind of writing style that makes me excited to read - lovers of words will be familiar with that thrilling moment where you see something described in a beautiful way that you would never have thought to describe it, or that so perfectly encapsulates something that you can't believe you've never heard it said that way before. These moments are littered throughout her books - moments of pure joy for any reader.
The magical plot is gripping and twisty, and there's murder and intrigue enough to keep this version of Edwardian Britain high on my list of favourite fantasy worlds.
The romance is utterly addictive - the push and pull between Jack and Alan, who both thrive on conflict, is sinfully good, and the spicy scenes do not disappoint.
This found family of queer misfits have taken up residence in my brain and my heart. I love them all. I need you to meet them.
I was lucky enough to receive an ARC of this book on Netgalley but it's out on November 9th, and in the meantime - if you haven't read the first 2 books - I can't recommend them enough. Start with A Marvelous Light - available on KU.
