A Vow So Bold and Deadly by Brigid Kemmerer is the third and final book in the Cursebreakers series. I have loved this series from the very beginning, and none of these books let me down! This series just feels so magical and homey to me (despite a dark sorceress torturing everyone). 

We pick up with Grey and Lia Mara in Syhl Shallow after the events of the last book. Lia Mara is struggling with how to be a queen without being like her mother, while keeping the respect and trust of her people. Grey is struggling with gaining the trust of the army he's supposed to be leading to Emberfall in order to claim his birthright. He also continues to try to figure out his magic. 

Rhen and Harper are dealing with Lilith yet again (dis bitch won't die!), As she pushes Rhen's hand toward a war against his brother, and threatening Harper. All of our characters have so much growth this book, especially Rhen and Grey. Everyone loses their virginity this book (except for Rhen. Princes are notoriously hos lol), although it all happens off page. I just love that the love interests are full people in their own right and don't exist just to further the male characters. I love how strong all the women in this series are. 

Happy that Tycho, my sweet boy, made it to the end, but I think Iisak was done dirty. I don't know what to do with myself now that I'm done with this world for awhile. I can't wait to get into Forging Silver into Stars to learn more about the Syhl Shallow people!
