Oh wow! This was a great ending to the series. I loved how the author kept surprising us throughout the entirety of the book. Well done.
The finale to this 4 book series was absolutely mind blowing. The way that we find secret after secret out. Everything I thought I knew going into this story had my head on a swivel. I am absolutely floored by how amazing this story is!
3.5/5
A good way to end this series. I enjoyed reading the final book, though there was a lot of heartbreak throughout. I do feel like some of the explanations of characters were rushed or not fully explained.
Knowing this was the last book I really tried to savor it. This one had my heart breaking so much. This entire series has been a joy to read, and Im so sad its ending.
This fascinating Fantasy Romance is Book 4, in the Blood Of A Fae Series.
The romance is this book is pre established from the previous books, and full of utter devotion towards one another.
The book does have several spicy scenes that are written intimately. Although there isnt a ton of spice, there is enough to keep you satisfied. The books plot really takes the focus of the book.
The book moves at a quick pace following the MCs as they travel to battle their enemy, and hopefully defeat them. The journey is full of battles, losses, found family, and self discovery.
The characters are amazing just as they are in the previous books. There are a few characters that have been in the shadows, as well as some very important new characters introduced.
The world building remains beautifully complex while adding in some new additions as the FMC learns more about who she really is.
Thanks for Netgalley and the author for providing me with this arc.
Knight of the goddess is the last book in this series.
I really loved to look back and see how much each of the characters changed and developed over the four books and how they reacted to the things that happened to them. I still adore the twists the author did to the Arthur-story. The real plot twist wasn't shocking though.
I think altogether it was a satisfactory ending but I wish we'd have gotten a bit more info - I wanted to know more about what happened to Rychel, the curse, the Valtain in General. There were still a few open threads.
The one POV that was added could've been solved otherwise in my opinion and just felt as if it was there to bring the solution to a hole the author digged herself in.
Writing wise the style didn't change from before. It was easy and relaxing to read.
The series was a nice read and I sure will look into the new book the author has coming!
NOTE: I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest opinion.
Again, please do check the triggers warning list as this could be hard for some readers.
Pendrath is now at peace and tries to help rebuild its neighbouring kingdoms, and their trust as well. Morgan and Draven can't apparently rest and focus on their family and friends. They must leave to save the whole continent.
This final book wraps up beautifully the whole series. The author has done it again: fast pace and high stakes, the best fury companions, the banter is on point, the side characters were just perfect!
I would read an entire series on the bearkins and exmoors. I loved them!
It shows that the world building and character development was nicely done throughout the previous books as we were not confused because of too much new information.
I enjoyed the different POVs and see the world under Medra and Morgan's POV. To witness how Medra sees the world and how fast she grows... Her inner turmoil is very relatable: as a mama with a preteen, it gives me weirdly an insight on what might going on in my own kid's mind.
On a negative side, I feel like most of the allies deaths were unnecessary or felt rushed, how an emotion like grief, while mentioned, didn't come through as much as it should have... The sex scenes were cringey at best, this animalistic side of Draven felt a little unnatural. I felt like the final battle between Gorlois and Morgan fell flat. I was expecting something more epic.
Briar Boleyn has done it again!
Thank you so much for this ARC, I thoroughly enjoyed binging it in one sitting. I couldn’t put it down.
I don’t want to say goodbye to these incredibly developed characters and this rich and fleshed out world.
Thank you for your addition to the romantasy genre, this series deserves so much more hype and popularity!!

Book 4 in series
In this final book of the series we see Morgan facing off against her enemies with the help of her mate, the gorgeous Draven and their most trusted friends.
We also get to experience her niece, Medra’s point of view which gives an interesting twist to the story. Although there is a lot of thrilling action, you need to be prepared for utter heartbreak. The storyline is very good but at some point things seem to go a little downhill, especially with Medra’s part of the story which would have been amazing if things went in a different direction.
I feel the ending could have been better as the utter carnage left me with a hole in my heart. Overall it was a fantastic twist on a King Arthur retelling and I would recommend this series to anyone who enjoys a good romantasy.
This book does have trigger warnings so please take note of that.
A huge thank you to Netgalley for a copy of this e-copy in exchange for this honest review.
This was a great conclusion to the series and included a plot twist that went far beyond what I had been anticipating. The character growth of Morgan and Draven from the first book to the end of the fourth is so amazing. I loved that we got to see so many different view points from different characters this time around and am very excited to see what’s coming next from Briar.
I was not ready for Morgan’s adventures to be over but here we are 🥲
This series has such a special place in my heart, this last book has had me sobbing like a baby constantly! I was not prepared to have lost so many people with in 1 book so be prepared…
So many secrets/ memories were recovered for Morgan from her past that I won’t share more on or I’ll spoil it but there’s little hints throughout the series that I didn’t see till they re-mentioned them!
The time her and Draven had in the mountain was so bloody frustrating 🙄
And dear Medra my god, I wish we got more on her! i feel like she could have had a story all to herself, poor Draven I truly felt for him!
In all this is one of my favourite books out of the series & this is a number 1 series for me now❤️
I give this infinite stars ✨✨✨
An action packed final installment to a riveting fantasy epic!
Whew the emotions on this one were high! This Knight of the Goddess was a good reminder that this series is DARK Romantasy and not everything will go smoothly and not everyone is going to make it to the end.
As solid and self-assured Morgan has been on her journey thus far, we are introduced to a much more questioning Morgan as bits and pieces of her true identity are revealed and start coming back to her.
Where the previous books had been focused a lot on Morgan and Draven (and their quests), this one really focuses on her journey to overtake her father and it brought a whole new slew of challenges and insights to their crew that the previous books didn't have.
We gain a new POV in this story that seemed wild at first, but I personally grew to empathize and love this character by the end and wow. I didn't see that coming, not really.
The last quarter of this book is so action packed that I'm not sure I blinked while reading. A lot of revelations, a lot of twists, and a lot of heartbreak.
This was a good ending to a great series!
Overall: recommend!
Thank you to NetGalley for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review
I think the story could have probably been wrapped up in three books, but the ending and epic showdown at the wow!
Though I was devastated with some of the characters ending.
Morgan and Draven willingness to love each other through all is a testament. The Vela moment really got me.
In all an entertaining story tale with a unique retelling of well loved myths.
I loved the story! And the plot and characters, so well written and unique in every aspect , I am so so so excited to read the second book and more stories from this author😍✨
Get your tissues ready!! My husband would look over at me in concern and confusion as I would be sobbing. This book had me feeling so many emotions and the way that Briar has a way to connect me to the characters, even ones I hardly knew, had me enthralled. Without spoiling the ending, I can’t even tell you that I was happy with how it ended because my heart is in a million places right now. Well done Briar.
If you haven’t read this series yet, what are you waiting for? I cannot wait for Briar’s next series. September cannot come soon enough!

Well this was a good ending to this series. I’m relieved that it is over. This was the fourth and final book in the series. A series that I have been enjoying very much. I read the 3rd book around 6 months ago.
I found the beginning of the book a little bit hard to get into after a break between books. Without rereading the third book, I was a little lost, and trying to remember what happened. And it took quite a while to get to any kind of recap until 10%. And there was a weird moment of braking the fourth wall at the end of chapter 4. It brought me completely out of the story and didn’t sit right with the rest of the narrative in the blatant foreshadowing.
The rest of the. Book was decent. Not amazing, not terrible. But I’m glad I don’t have it on my TBR anymore. The loose ends were tied up fairly easily. There weren’t many more twists. Everything was fairly well foreshadowed.
Thank you NetGallet and. For the eARC. All opinions are my own.
Thank you for this Arc!
I binged the 1st three books and had been patiently waiting to see how the series would conclude.
I enjoyed the multiple POVs, Draven and Morgan's relationship, the action and suspense.
Thank you NetGalley and Starwater Press for this eCopy to review
What an action packed conclusion to the Blood of a Fae series, Knight of the Goddess is. Morgan Le Fae battles against her father to save the realms, learns how to use her powers fully, and finds the answers to many mysteries along the way.
I loved how Morgan's and Draven's relationship deepened into a true partnership. The duel points of view from Morgan and Medra allowed for a deeper understanding of the story.
"Knight of the Goddess" by Briar Boleyn is the thrilling conclusion to the "Blood of a Fae" series. The story follows Morgan and Draven as they confront evil in Camelot. Their quest involves powerful artifacts. The artifacts their truths. Boleyn masterfully balances action, suspense, and emotional depth, delivering a satisfying closure to the series while highlighting themes of love and sacrifice
This one got a little confusing toward the end. How did Draven end up being Khor? Why did Medra have that speed aging thing going for her? Why did Gawain have to die? What was with Crescents 180 personality change? I have so many questions about this book.
I am almost sad for this series to be done... this last one really tore at my heart. I still loved it of course, but dang I was so invested in all the lives. Odessa, Hawley, Draven, Morgan... all of them.
I never felt lost. I could picture the scenery and everything. So wonderfully written that I was just so easy to see as a "movie in my head" as I was reading.
