I really did enjoy this book, but it didn't quite meet my high expectations for a finale. While it has its strengths, certain aspects left me wanting more.

One major issue I had was with the pacing of the battle scenes. They often ended too abruptly, leaving me feeling like the climax was missing. The Battle at Tintagel stood out, but overall, I was expecting more from the action sequences. This book does have the most action of the series, but the impact was somewhat diminished by the rushed endings. The portrayal of grief and loss unfortunately felt a bit flat. Normally, I get emotionally invested in character deaths, but this time, I didn't feel the same connection.

Morgan and Draven's journey through Arcaenum is filled with wild discoveries and personal growth. They are at their strongest both physically and character-wise. Their relationship is compelling, though some of their interactions were a bit corny. The dual perspectives of Morgan and Medra added depth, though Medra's rapid growth left some unanswered questions.

There were several plot points that felt underdeveloped, as if they were included just to tie up loose ends. This sense of rushing detracted from my overall enjoyment.

This book is good but not as enthralling as the previous installments. It's full of dark magic, found family, spicy romance, and action, making it a worthwhile read for fans of the series. The world-building remains top-notch, and there's a twist towards the end that's surprising. If you're into enemies-to-lovers romances or dark fae twists on King Arthur tales, this series is for you. Despite some flaws, I recommend checking out this series. It's been an enjoyable journey, and I'll be looking out for more from the author, Briar Boleyn.

Thank you to NetGalley, Briar Boleyn, and Starwater Press for the opportunity to review this series in exchange for an honest review. All thought and opinions are my own.

I have to say that as much as I enjoyed the series up until now, the final installment struck me as a little bit of a let down. The writing style seemed to change quite a bit and the prose felt really repetitive. At points it felt like I was just reading the same sentence over and over but just phrased differently. I’m slightly disappointed as I expected more from the fourth and final book but I will say that I’m glad I read it all the same because the character growth has been exponential. I ended up rating it a 3/5 stars.

Some moments in this books really made me sad. When they happened though, I felt like they were very brief. I almost would have liked to sit in it for a bit to experience what the characters were. I think this was to keep the pace of the book, but it made those moments less impactful. I did get a bit confused towards the end with all the moving parts, but i thought it was a fitting conclusion to this adventure. I love Briar Boleyn’s style of writing, and will definitely be getting future books from her. The detail in world building and scenes is wonderful. There is some spice… I'd say a 2 out of 5 for this book. Highly recommend this series!

Finish.. I finish and now I'm sad and processing and thinking in Morgan and Draven and everything.. And that part from the next book... My mind is running in who it is... Anyway I know the losses were important but I wanted more of Medra I do think she would made an amazing character to explore

Thank you NetGalley, the publisher, and Briar for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Well.... where to start?! I was not emotionally prepared for where this book would take me. This is Morgan and Draven's final quest, and what a quest it was. There were so many turns I did not see coming, just when I had processed something, Briar was like BAM! here is something else, and I am here for it. Whilst I got upset, I loved how Briar wasn't afraid to do what she had do. When everything was finally revealed, it was not what I was anticipating, but it was so much better.

I have felt so much for these characters over this series, but this was by far my favourite. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading these adventures!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this digital ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Knight of the Goddess was one of my most anticipated books this year, and it did not disappoint! This was the fourth and final book in the Blood of Fae series, and Briar did an excellent job on this series. While I can’t say Knight of the Goddess was my favorite book from Briar, it was still a really exciting and well written ending to a really great story. I can’t wait to see what’s next from Briar Boleyn!

This being a review for the final book in the series, there are unavoidable spoilers for the previous books ahead!

This story was a non-stop race from beginning to end and what a way to finish the series! The chaos of epic battles, loss, and crazy plot twist’s had my head spinning.
Morgan and Draven have come far as a couple, and are an epic team in battle. Their quest was a huge undertaking but I loved that they had the support of friends that refused to be left behind. So many things I could spoil so I’m keeping my lips sealed!
This rollercoaster of a series made me laugh, cry, and hold on tight- it’s definitely worth a read!

What a way to end a series! I couldn't wait to get to this one, screw the rest of the TBR! Briar Boleyn did not disappoint. A quest to destroy three powerful magical objects, Arthurian lore, magical creatures, powerful deities, action-packed sequences and sinful scenes. One could not ask for more in a gift-wrapped package of a finale.

This series deserves the hype! READ THIS if you like King Arthur & Camelot re-tellings, ACOTAR, or From Blood & Ash.

I'm furious bc this series had so much potential, I really liked books 1 & 2 but since then it all started to go downhill. and this ending?? it wasn't really an ending. too many plot holes and so many things happening while also being super boring. I'm sad to say I wasn't a fan of the final book of the Blood of Fae series.

Wow! What an ending! The final of four books in the series, and its evident that Briar Boleyn knew exactly what epic journeys her characters were going to go on. This finale was everything I hoped for.

*Must read in order.

I absolutely loved every minute of this epic fantasy!

Thank you so much author Briar Boleyn and NetGalley for the unique opportunity to ARC all four books in this series. This last one was a show stopper!

It’s the last book of the Blood of Fae series and it couldn’t be better than the other books! It’s a fantastic book with a good character development and suspense throughout the story, the ending was amazing!!

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Victory Editing for access to this book in exchange for my honest review! Knight of the Goddess is the fourth and final book in the Blood of a Fae series and cannot be read as a standalone. Honestly, I really enjoyed the first 2 books of this series but the final 2 fell a little flat for me. Since I'm not reviewing the series as a whole, I'll try to stick with this individual book.
This book is all about Morgan and her battle with her father. He wants her back, she doesn't want to go, and he does everything to try to take her until Morgan brings the fight to him. But the book seemed more focused on their traveling than the actual interesting stuff. The battles, except for the first one, are rushed through. When characters were lost, they jumped right on to the next thing, so I had no time to feel any emotion about their death. And the backstory about why this was all happening was thrown in there in the last 10% of the book (even though apparently Morgan knew all of it and was keeping it a secret?). I was so confused I barely had time to process it, and then the book was over. One thing I did enjoy was the strength of Morgan and Draven's relationship. It has really progressed throughout the course of the series and, in this book, you can see how strong they are together. Morgan is secure in who she is and in how Draven will be there for her. The multiple POV is also an aspect of the book I appreciate, especially getting to see things from the eyes of a new character, even though the ending wasn't what I had hoped for them. Overall, I enjoyed this series but my excitement fell with these last two books.

This was a series that I enjoyed reading but I did find that I was not as immersed in the final book. I found that parts of the final book felt a bit rushed personally and some of the plot around Vela and Khor could have been developed a bit better or earlier. Overall though I did enjoy the characters throughout this series. This series had heartbreaks and love which I thought really came through in the book and writing. I look forward to reading more in the future.

Knight of the Goddess was the weakest book in this series. It took me a while to finish and I powered through instead of DNF, I was so bored. I felt like parts of the book lagged and were so slow and then the action was so rushed and didn’t work well for the series. The entire plot line with Medra was bizarre. Medra’s sacrifice and the end of the book were a rush. I just felt like I was reading something my 5 year old and 9 year old were trying to explain.

Thanks Netgalley for this book!

Knight of the Goddess is the last book in the Blood of a Fae series, and it definitely didn’t disappoint! This book followed Morgan and Draven hunting down her father, and saving the world (lol).

There were three different perspectives given throughout this book, which I enjoyed for the most part.
Medra and everything about her did creep me out, and I found that I didn’t enjoy her storyline as much as the rest of the series. I’m glad the book ended the way it did (not sorry).

Briar does love killing off good characters, and a lot of them at that, so my poor heart had a bit of a hard time especially towards the end. I don’t think I’ll ever get over Nightclaw, even tho the end of it was cute.

There also seemed like a decent amount of unfinished business, but I’m hanging out for On Wings of Blood to come out, as it is based in the same world and I’m hoping it may answer some questions!

I am SO glad I came across this series on Net Gallery. Thank you so much to them for allowing me to read them.
This series will fuel your romantasy fire!!! A
retelling of sorts of Arthur (bad Arthur) and Camelot.
My emotions were all over the place. Joy, sorrow, anger, relief... at times my stomach was in my throat. At times I wanted to kick and scream and at times I felt the same brief peace the characters were feeling.
This series is full of great world and character building. I loved seeing the characters grow throughout each book.
The sacrifice and depth of love not just between Draven and Morgan but for their circle and community is beautiful. Well thought out storyline and individuals. I would definitely recommend reading the Blood of Fae series!!

The fourth and final book in the series wrapped all of the storylines up nicely together. There were so many twists and turns that I was not expecting. Divine intervention mixes with fated mates. I love that Draven and Morgan cross continents and seas together to destroy the sword, spear, and chalice. While I overlooked some things with the writing, the world building was 10/10.

"Every twisted part of me is yours. And every twisted part of you is mine. The good and the bad. All of it.
Forever. You're f-ing mine, Draven Venator.”

Knight of the Goddess was the perfect end to a brilliant series.

The love and romance that is between the two main characters is great throughout, the support they give each other while remaining flawed is so relatable.

Some of the lovemaking scenes were just a bit unnecessary - however the one towards the end - you will know when you come across it...perfect, amazing and fantastic. Dark, arousing but also edgy and romantic at the same time.

Story building from book 1 reaches a climax in this book (you see what I did here) - the ending brings all the main story lines to a fair and just ending.

I cried, I laughed and I cringed.

I would recommend this series to anyone who likes Romantasy, Arthurian Legend, Magic and some smutty smut!

This is a dark romance, fantasy, retelling of King Arthur--just with fairies. Morgan is a likable FMC who you find yourself wanting the nest for. The world building and character development are amazing. This was th final story in the series but I felt like they explained the plot well enough that I wasn't lost or confused while reading. Ive never read from a babies POV but that was interesting and executed nicely. The romance is top tier but smut is mild.

So this concludes another series and what an ending!

It's really hard to be objective when it comes to books from series that I enjoyed, especially when it is the last book. While the book before felt like a good ending for that part of the story, this volume was so much better and the author managed to capture so many emotions and so many small details that made everything feel so real.

I don't even know where to start from, I liked so many things in this book, especially Medra, not because she is very likeable, but because she managed to understand how loved she actually was and I'm not even going to talk about what she had to do.

The book is filled with twists and many are really heartbreaking, but no matter how much this book made me cry, I loved it. Go read the series, it is worth it.
