book in the fantasy Ascension series that NYT bestselling author Susan Dennard called &#8220;perfect for fans of Sarah J Maas.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>War is on the horizon.<\/p>\n<p>All while a new power grows strong, threatening the very balance of good and evil.<\/p>\n<p>Desperate to save her homeland, Cyrene goes in search of the dragons that may be the key to ending this battle\u2014and heal her dying friend.<\/p>\n<p>Can Cyrene master her magic to save the world?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Review:<\/h2>\n<p>Cyrene finds herself desperate to find help for her bound-sister, Avoca.\u00a0 While their travels send them in search of mystics and healers she must also learn to control the power within her.\u00a0 As she is desperate to find answers, Kael has fully taken control of Byern and yearns for even more power.\u00a0 The network of spies that lie beneath Byern are growing stronger and yearn for a leader to help them take their world from the dark force that is taking it over.\u00a0 Cyrene knows to win this war she must travel to find the lost dragons.\u00a0 Will Cyrene be able to do all that is needed and save her friends and the world before the growing power destroys all she holds dear?<\/p>\n<p>OMG!\u00a0 I can&#8217;t even with this book.\u00a0 I didn&#8217;t think this world could get any better than it already was but this book blew my expectations out of the water.\u00a0 Cyrene&#8217;s journey is so enthralling.\u00a0 Her quest for the dragons, control of her magic and saving Avoca propels this book to a whole new level.\u00a0 You really sink further into this world and get to see all of the characters grow.\u00a0 Dean and Cyrene really start to grow back together too.\u00a0 After the previous book and his betrayal I wasn&#8217;t sure if they would be able to salvage anything that happened between them, but their relationship has redeveloped and made their characters more dynamic.\u00a0 Ahlvie and Avoca are another story that has truly come together finally.\u00a0 What I truly loved about this book is when the characters that contain the light are present you can almost feel the light radiating off of the page.\u00a0 In the same token, when the characters that contain the dark are present you feel them drag you into that feeling.\u00a0 It truly was a fantastic book that will definitely leave you going WTF? in some parts and begging for October 2019 to hurry up and get here.\u00a0 This book is part 4 in a series that is ongoing.\u00a0 You will need to read it in order.<\/p>\n<p>My review for The Affiliate (Ascension #1) is <a
