OH MY GOD, what was that ending!?!?!? Nisha J. Tuli!!!! Ma’am? How could you do that to us!?!? 😫😭😭😭
Oh my. I had a long break in between reading book 2 and then finally getting to read this one and I forgot how much I love this world, the characters and this story. This book was so good but now I’m absolutely dying for the final book!! Oh I can’t wait to find out what happens next. Highly recommend this series to any and all fantasy readers!

This series took a moment to get in to. I did not love the first book, but the second and third really changed my opinion about this series! I devoured this in two days, I loved it book so much. The entire time. I was on the edge of my seat watching Lor and her found family navigate this book. I can't wait for the next in this series.

Have you ever found yourself putting off reading a book in a series until closer to when the next book comes out? 🫣 Case in point here!

I couldn't wait any longer though... and boy was it a ride! Now I'm even more excited for Tales!

Rating - ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Thank you NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for an e-ARC.

Fate of the Sun King is the third and penultimate installment in the Artefacts of Ouranos Series by Nisha J. Tuli which is perfect for fans of ACOTAR, The Selection and Hunger Games.

As usual, Nisha J. Tuli outdid herself and never forgets to serve with her books. I cannot stop talking about this book and all the theories that are forming in my mind.

The slowburn in book 2 paid off in this installment and rewarded us handsomely. The wait for this book was longg and I can't believe it ended this well!

I could not put the book down at all except to catch up some sleep!

Mor's strong-willed mind and character arc was played out beautifully and there was a lot of characfer development from the first book to now.

The history chapters were intriguing. I found myself yearning for the secrets and history of the First Ages of Ouranos and more Serce and Wolf's story. I was immediately hooked form the first chapter.

The jaw-dropping revelationg for this penultimate book was too much and to fun. I had t expected so many revelations to be dropped.

I loved how Gabriel was not what he seemed from the previous books but rather a true friend to Tyr, a new character who we were finally introduced too.

Can't wait for the final installment to come out!

This is one of my favorite series of all time!

Fate of the Sun King was everything I had hoped to be and then some....that cliffhanger though LIKE WHAT?! I'm not sure I'm going to survive the wait for the next book my heart has been torn out and stomped on.

Tuli does world building and story telling so incredibly well, I will forever recommend this series

Love love love. I can not wait for the next book! I absolutely love the strong MFC! The world building and storyline are out of this world amazing. I could not stop reading. I love anything Nisha J Tuli writes!

I am having such a good time in this world. I did not expect half the things that happened, and I keep grinning to myself whenever something new comes up. At the same, it’s super interesting to see the characters take off, closer to their destinies now, alliances shift, and romances bloom. This one was hotter than the other books so those waiting for spicy stuff are going to love it, especially Lor and Nadir fans.

I absolutely love this series and really wish more people would read it! The world building is so detailed and you fall in love with each of the characters. The only reason it’s not 5 stars is because the middle felt slow and I had to fight off skimming. I still loved this read though

So far I have been really enjoying this series, it has been very entertaining, and hard to put down. This book was a nice addition to the series, and although the ending made me mad, I still look forward to the next book. I am holding out for that HEA!

Thank you NetGalley and Forever publishing for the ARC!

I loved being back in Ouranos for the third installment of this series. They keep getting better each time.

If you love fae royalty, hidden identities, women overcoming all odds and a slow burn romance, this one is for you! I loved learning more about Gabriel.

Honestly, this book has the wildest first line I've ever read and a pretty wild cliffhanger too! The world of Ouranos is so flushed out and complex, but easy to understand. The romance is more steady in this one and I enjoyed this new dynamic to the relationship. The quests were good and, as always, the flashbacks were great!

This series is rated R for sexual content and cursing.

This one hurt... like really hurt. But in a good way??? If I didn't care so much about Lor and Nadir I wouldn't be in this situation. With that being said... I'm in love with this series and I cannot wait for the fourth and final book!

Lor and her family feel like my family at this point. And Nadir is my book boyfriend. The tension is tensioning in this book between those two. And the author finally delivers on what was promised to us readers IYKYK. But how could I forget about our favorite, Gabriel! If you didn't love him before (but why wouldn't you?) you are sure to now with his POV.

As Lor and the gang are back in Aphelion, she finally begins to understand her and her family's past and about the Artefacts. And boy do things finally click into place. I for one can't wait to continue the series but at the same time hate to say bye to these characters that I have come to love so much!

Fate of the Sun King by Nisha J Tuli
Thank you to NetGalley, Forever Publishers and Nisha J Tuli for the ARC!!
Beware, Spoilers…

We get a lot more world building in the third book. I love that the story still has so many layers to it!
Atlas, what an ass.
Gabriel, I am so glad to learn he had his own agenda this whole time. I loved getting a 3rd POV from him. We had a roller coaster of a ride of emotions with loving to hate him. Poor Gabriel.
Just when I was starting to find “inmate” endearing lol (IYKYK)
I have been eating the SLOW BURN up so hard the last 2 books! When we finally get what we have been dying for (praise) I felt like it was a poof! And we are done. I really wish we could have sat in the realization of who they were to each other a little longer and could have savored that moment a little more…

Lor and Nadir FINALLY realize what this “thing” is between them! We learn that Tyr is being held captive by his crazy ass brother.
Side character for the win… Mael. Love him. (in the house of Payne…lol)

Nisha, that ending- WHHHHYYYYYYYYYYY!?!??!??!?!

I flew through this book so fast, excited I received the ARC for Tale of the Heart Queen!!! I NEED TO KNOWWW!!!

GAH! The end!!!!! WHY?!?!?

I've really enjoyed following Lor and Nadir on this adventure and getting to know the people closest to them a tiny bit more. I can't wait to see how this entire story ends in the next book!

Unfortunately, I DNF'ed this book after trying to start it a few times. I just don't think it is a book for me. However, I know so many people who love this book!

I had really high expectations for this one because I loved the 2nd book so much! Lucky for me, those expectations were exceeded! I just adore Nisha's writing so much and she knows how to do a slow burn so well! It really paid off in this one! The ending has been yearning for the the next one (I can't believe this series is coming to a close!!)

If I hadn't enjoyed every single heartbreaking word, I'd be unimaginably angry about the ending right now. Trusting the process to get us to that HEA even if I can't see it yet.

Thank you to NetGalley and Nisha for an early copy.
I love this series so much that my library picked it up after my recommendation and I love seeing it get checked out!
I loved reading Gabriel’s pov in this book and so happy she added him in to see his thought processes and being pulled in both directions on his loyalty or the right thing to do. And, thank you Nisha for throwing in the spice! I was like yaaaasssss finally when I got to the scene.
There were so many awesome elements and twists in this book I am stoked for the next book this fall and also sad it will be ending.

Thank you Forever and NetGalley for an eARC. All opinions are my own.

In Fate of the Sun King (book 3 of the Artefacts of Ouranos), we follow Lor as she tries to return to Aphelion's artefact, the Mirror. The Mirror had promised her a gift when she first looked into it. As Lor makes her way, she slowly discovers more about herself, her life and a little bit of her future, and about what her grandmother Serce actually did.

I was not a fan of this book. Let' start with the dedication and the spoiler in it. It kind of ruined the moment for me because I knew it was coming. The book overall felt like it dragged on, and like we were getting dragged from place to place just to get morsels of information. A lot of it was kind of predictable and at times felt repetitive.

I could've done without all the crying. I get the characters are trying to work through their rough past, but I felt there was too much crying. I also could've done without the attempts at humor. It felt a bit juvenile the way it was done. And lastly, I could've done without all the m-word crap. The romance felt like it was too in-your-face and was kind of annoying, especially with all the ILYs and ILY more.

Having said all that, am I going to read the next book? Most likely yes. It wasn't a bad book, it just wasn't for me.

FAntastic third book in a series! Loved seeing how Lor grew in this one. Cannot wait for the final book!

I am obsessed with this series! I thought it could not get better after book 2 but boy was I wrong. Nisha Tuli continues to prove why she has earned her spot on my list of auto-buy authors. Be prepared to be left speechless and dying for book 4! That ending was brutal, my heart can't take waiting to find out how this will end. I've come to love these characters as much as I do for some of the most popular romantasy series (ACOTAR, looking at you). I really enjoy getting to see the POVs of different characters. It is helping build the world and answer pending questions. Oh, and the SPICE?! The spice upgrade we got in this book is amazing. Nadir is worth the wait. The chemistry is (chef's kiss emoji).

Thank you to NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for providing an eARC of this book.
