I am absolutely obsessed with this series! Between the characters and magic system I love this world. I could not put this book down once I started. Lor was amazing in this book. I love that she really started to heal from her past and is becoming such a strong leader. Her powers are amazing and I can’t wait to see her full potential. My favorite part is the multiple povs so we really got to see what was going on. As well as flashbacks to the past to see what has caused the problems for the fae. The storyline with Atlas, Gabriel, and Tyr was crazy and I can’t wait to see more of their interactions in the next book. And after that crazy crazy ending I need the next book asap!

was hands down the best of the series so far.
I feel like it finally found its groove. Took awhile to get there but at last Lor is finding her power. Is she still whiny for half of it?
Yes.. but once she accepts what is SO obvious to the readers she becomes more tolerable and I found myself routing for her.
The spice was much better in this book... so that was a plus.
It was nice to see Gabriel get some POVs.. he is a character I want more from.
The siblings had some time to shine in this book too which was very needed.
All and all it ended in a great way and I am excited to see where the story goes and hopefully it will surprise me

Okay wow… first: thank you Net Galley & Nisha J Tuli for the ARC! I was SO excited when I got it and couldn’t stop reading from the moment I started. This is definitely my favorite of the 3 in the series so far. I don’t want to give away any spoilers but that cliff hanger??! Cue Jennifer Lawrence’s “what do you MEAN?!” voiceover. I have SO many questions and I won’t be able to stop thinking about it until the next book. Now…. Did I cringe a little bit at the new nickname for Lor? Absolutely. But it’s a minor detail that isn’t completely overused throughout the book so it didn’t spoil the reading experience for me. I loved the POVs we got and the deeper understanding into Gabriel’s character as well, it was much needed and added so much more depth to the story. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and will be waiting on pins and needles for the next!

First thank you to ARC for the advanced copy! This was the great follow up to the previous books and like the others is a blend of romance and action. There were multiple POV’s and we got a glimpse of past timelines in the book. I also enjoyed the character development for LOR and am impatiently waiting the next book!

Thank you so much Nisha J. Tuli and NetGalley for the eARC of Fate of the Sun King. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

WOW! Wow, wow, wow! Book dragons, the Fate of the Sun King delivered 😍! Since this is an ARC review, as well as a review of the third book in the series, I’ll do my best to be vague.

I feel like the Artefacts of Ouranos series just keeps getting better and better. That being said, Fate of the Sun King is no exception! This book digs so much deeper than the previous installments. There are so many shocking reveals🤯, steamy romantic scenes🔥, and heartbreakingly tender moments❤️.

I loved how Lor not only had to learn more about her past and her magic, but also how to make room in her life for vulnerability without losing her edge. It was a tricky line to walk, but Nisha J. Tuli executed it beautifully. Lor is such a fun character to read about and I cannot wait to see where the story takes her next.

Ok, now for that ending 🤯. What am I supposed to do with my life until the fourth book is in my hands?!?!? I’ll absolutely be doing a reread of the entire series soon because I’m not ready to let go of these characters and this world just yet. 📚

In the pages, you will find:

❤️Romance
⚡️Magic
🤝Found Family
🤯Shocking revelations
🌶️Spice
📝Dangerous plotting
🪽Betryal
🧗‍♀️A giant cliffhanger ending

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

The series so far had me trapped for several days as I binged through it. There's an addictive quality to Nisha J. Tulis's writing. I usually see twists coming, but the fate of the Sun King took me by surprise.

And poor Gabe, that broke my heart.

Lor's story continues, and I have so many questions. I cannot wait for the next book after that ending!

BOOK/ARC REVIEW: Fate of the Sun King by Nisha J. Tuli

5 STARS

OMG THAT ENDING!?!?!?! NISHA HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO US???? You think the ending of book two is bad… Oh just wait until this one! I was actually flipping the last page back because I thought I missed something?! But I didn’t AND I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!!

I loved being back in Ouranos, this universe that Nisha has created is amazing and lacks NOTHING! NOTHING I TELL YOU! You can’t help but love every single character that she writes, even the side characters too. You will be rooting for characters to win or to be together and praying they get their HEA.

Action & Adventure. There is so much of it in her books, from book one to this one. You will not be able to put it down, I know I wasn’t able to for this one or any of them. The plot keeps building and a natural pace, keeping you on your toes. Keeping you turning the page, wanting to know more. What happens next, you can’t get enough (I know I can’t) I need more.

I AM OBSESSED WITH LOR AND AS EQUALLY OBSESSED WITH THE MMC!!!! And the spice in this one, let me just say THAT IT IS WORTH THE WAIT, TRUST ME!!!

Please, PLEASE, go read this series!! You will not be disappointed!!

When I tell you I smashed through books one and two, it’s no joke. I speed read through them, not able to get enough of the characters on the page.

This book though, I just couldn’t get into it. Atlas’s fate was worth reading, but when it came to the others, I found my favorite characters lacking. Lor and Nadir were…annoying. They felt very out of reach of the characters we were initially introduced to. I will absolutely be reading the next book, but for some reason I was just feeling a little letdown this time around.

The third book of the series is exactly what you want! Miss Nisha really did it for me with this book. The adventure, the characters, the plot twist and let’s not forget that ending that leaves me patiently waiting now for the fourth book. A lot of the questions I had from the second book were answered with this book.

I really wanted to like this book because I enjoyed the previous books in the series but it fell a little flat for me :( the dialogue wasn’t hitting, the hard shift to being mates wasn’t it for me, and the ending really just nailed the hammer in the coffin.

Was this review helpful?

Well, this was better than even I could have expected.
The tension between Lor and Nadir finally came to a head as they both admitted how they felt about each other, and it was perfect.
More secrets are revealed, and it changes so much.
I'm trying to find words, but I'm speechless.
There is mates, enemies to lovers, fate and so much more than that.
Loved it and cannot wait to see how it all wraps up in book 4.

I thought I could continue the series but I am not strong enough lmaooo. Not sure if it's the writing or the characters or maybe this just isn't my cup of tea but my goodness sometimes the dialogue and inner monologues get to be so insufferable...
Going to have to DNF cause I just can't hold out any more

💙 Enemies to Lovers
💙 Multi POV
💙 Spice 🌶️🌶️🌶️ (thank heavens 😂)
💙 Fated Mates
💙 Hilarious Banter
💙 Found Family
💙 Killer Cliffhanger... I am still unwell 😭

Fate of the Sun King is my favorite book in the Artefacts of Ouranos series and it's not all because of the spice (although that is a hefty part of it 😂), it's also because I lost count of how many times I laughed at the banter between the characters. The snarky banter between Lor and Nadir made them swoon worthy, but the icing on the cake is the banter between all the characters especially Tristan, Lor and Nadir (after you read, the quote above will make you laugh all over again).

Another reason this book is my favorite in the series is because I truly did not know where the story was going. In fact that cliffhanger has me questioning everything I thought I knew about this series. It's completely unfair that I have to wait until November for my anxiety to be relieved. So yes, I highly recommend this series to any and all because I need more people to wallow in my misery with me 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

Thank you NetGalley and Nisha J Tuli for the ARC!

Thank you to Nisha for the heads up, and NetGalley for the ARC to read and review.

SPOILER FREE REVIEW:

I have been looking forward to this book since I devoured 1&2 last fall, & yet again, Nisha DID NOT DISAPPOINT. I absolutely loved the character descriptions in the beginning, just to add some zest.

I really enjoyed the back-and-forth timeline to learn more about the original rulers of Ouranos, while seeing how past decisions impacted the present time. It was great having some small cameo appearances from past book faves as well.

Lor and Nadir are just, great together. Loved getting to have Tristan and Willow play more key roles in the story as well and giving them their own journeys to go through.

With all of that being said, THAT ENDING. I predicted one twist toward the end but was NOT READY for the final twist of the story. Now I'm at a loss and needing the final book to make everything ok.

THIS SERIES IS MY EVERYTHING! And I’m also really upset about this cliffhanger… the care that has gone into the world building for this series is incredible. And the tropes?! And the banter?! And the slow burn?! I can’t get enough of these characters and this world.

Was this review helpful?

The third book in the Artefacts of Ouranos series and it's a good one. It's probably my favorite in the series because the slow burn finally paid off lol. There is so much more lore, worldbuilding, found family, and spice in this book and I was invested despite the slow pace of the beginning if the book. This was a dual POV and we get the main characters' and Gabriel's in this one I wonder if Gaberial is getting his own book or something 👀. There are higher stakes in this book especially with the flashbacks and world history that we get. I liked how the romance progressed between Lor and Nadir, there was tension and angst though I just wanted them to finally get together. The ending though, prepare for a cliffhanger because there is a huge one at the end. If you like romantasy's then you need to start this series! Thank you Forever Publishing for this arc for an honest review.

I LOVE this series! Each book continues to capture me in a different way.

The first book had the prison setting and the deadly competition. You really got to know Lor and fall in love with her character.

Book two is MY FAVORITE in the series! I love the relationship between Lor and Nadir. The touch her and die vibes in this book was perfection.
 
Book 3 was incredible! I loved the world building in this book and the dual timeline. Nadir and Lor's relationship grows in this book and you get more spicy scenes which are so good! It was enjoyable from start to finish. That ending!! Book 4 cannot come soon enough! 

What you can expect from book 3:
-Growing relationship between Nadir and Lor
-More Spice
-A history of their world
-Dual POV
-More Gabriel!
-Dual Timeline
-Found Family

I highly recommend this series to ANY romantasy readers. It's one of my all time favorites.

This series just keeps getting better and better. I'm ready to fight over that ending though...like honestly wtf Nisha. Do you expect me to calmly and patiently wait until November to read book 4?

Was this review helpful?

I am so thrilled to get to review the third book of this series! The story follows Lor and Nadir as they plot to unlock Lor’s powers.

What I liked: I enjoyed Gabriel’s arc in this story. I found him so interesting in the first book and missed him during the second. I also appreciated that we got some more answers surrounding Zerra and her priestesses.

What I didn’t like: This book was pretty slow-paced. The whole book builds toward the final few chapters. My copy also had a lot of errors with quotations marks which made it sometimes hard to follow.

Overall, I liked the book and I definitely plan to continue the series!
