3rd DNF of 2022
Sixth and last book in the Spellslinger series
Kellen and Reichis are settling into their new lives as protectors of the young queen and dealing with the constantly shifting threats to her reign and to her life. For the first time in his life, Kellen feels as if he’s becoming the kind of man that his mentor Ferius had wanted him to be. Even Reichis has come to appreciate having a noble purpose – so long as no one minds him committing the occasional act of theft from the royal treasury.
But what seems to be a simple card game between Kellen and an old man is soon revealed to be a deadly game of wits in which a powerful mage has trapped the queen’s spellslinger in order to kill him.

Review
So I couldn’t read it anymore, so I prefered to DNF it. It’s not that the book is terrible or anything; I’m just not into this series anymore.
The problem is that this one is more than 500 pages. So I read a little more than 200 pages and finally decided to skip most of the book and skim through the ending so I could finally have the answers to my questions.
However, there were some elements that aren’t my favourite when it comes to the last book of a series. For example, the comeback of some characters you didn’t see for a while or the sudden evolution of Kellen in this book, even if I feel that he didn’t really evolve through the series. Also, I still find that the book’s construction was exactly the same as the previous ones.
I honestly tried to read it, but even with the audiobook, I couldn’t.
Liz.
