Im so glad to have a conclusion to Lor and Nadir’s story, but sad the series is over! I felt like Lor and Nadir’s relationship was at its best in this book, and it was nice to have the multiple timelines to learn more about character backstories. However, sometimes if felt like there were *too* many POVs, and the pacing was a bit slow for me at times.

I absolutely looooved this series and where it take you in this book. The characters are still so great and the plot just keeps developing. I love that there is so much more to each person than you realized and that you get so see a side of people you never thought you would want to see. Loved the journey!

Thank you to Netgalley and Forever Publishing for the advanced copy of Tale of the Heart Queen.
This is the final installment of the Artifacts of Oranos series, and what an ending! This book perfectly wrapped up not just Lor’s story, but all of the characters that we’ve come to know and love (or hate… I’m looking at you Atlas). My only critique is that some of the side character storylines were wrapped up a little too perfectly to the point where it was cheesy.
Although it’s sad to see something you loved come to an end, I’m excited to see what Tuli writes next.

This was a perfect conclusion to the Artefacts of Ouranos series! I loved Lor's journey. She really got to come a long way and it was great to see such a satisfying end for a wonderful character. There was a lot still to be done in this installment, from resolution in Aphelion (where the story kicked off) to an impromptu trip to the underworld (what?!); this was action-packed with plenty of moments to leave you satisfied in the way relationships developed.

3.75 ⭐️ I was slightly disappointed in this one after being obsessed with book 2 and 3. I still enjoyed it, but I expected more from the finale.
Still obviously adored the characters and the unique world building. My main issue was that it had such an agonizing build up and then the climax was underwhelming. I found myself skimming most of this one. I still highly recommend the series as a whole because I loved it!

I loved this series and I'm happy with the ending. But I did feel like this book took me so much longer to read and get into then the rest. I read the first two books in under a day. This one took weeks. And I never really felt that pull to just devour it like I feel like I should.

Thank you NetGalley and Forever Publishing for the gifted arc!!
This was such an amazing conclusion to this series, and it was the strongest book in my opinion. This was just one of those books that I couldn’t put down.
Lor’s character development was immaculate. For most of the series, she kind of annoyed me tbh. But in this book she finally became the FMC we deserved. The romance was perfect too, and I really love that she kept all of her power and her crown instead of giving it up for love. It was refreshing to see the MMC be the one to make sacrifices. Also so much love to Nadir for being a MMC that encourages the FMC to be unapologetically powerful. Nadir was a great MMC who was so supportive of Lor and encouraged her to be strong and loved her through everything. I’m so glad they got their HEA.
The plot twists in this were TWISTING. I was biting my nails and on the edge of my seat for a large portion of this book. The twist with Rion at the end had me shook. And sweet, sweet Tyr. I’m truly so glad with where the characters ended up, and I felt like I really fell in love with the characters in this installment.

I wish I could physically scream louder because I'd use my supersonic screech to force everyone to witness the glory that is Nisha J. Tuli. My Christmas wish is for this book series to be in every single person on the planet's hands immediately.
Nadir is soooo broody and loving, and Lor deals with her own messed up journey, but the way Tuli weaves their twisted tale is so lyrically beautiful, I will never get over it. She pulls no stops, leaves no punch unthrown, and I SOBBED at the end. This was the definition of a perfect ending to a mesmerizing series. I have loved Lor from the very beginning, and I will continue to champion her until the end of my days.
With Nisha J. Tuli, you never really know what you're getting from the book, but you can count on being completely satisfied when it's all said and done, and that's a guarantee.

It's hard to believe this series has now concluded. It was truly been a wild ride and I can't believe we are at the end and just how perfect this last book shaped to be. It had everything that the previous books had and more. We got the epic love story that is Lor and Nadir, we have amazing action, we got tons of political intrigue and we also see the villains get their due in a way that is so fitting.
The multiple POV's work for me and I loved especially Gabriel's. That man has been through so much and a lot burdens him and to see him struggle with the betrayal of Atlas and carry the heavy burden for Tyr, it just made me love him more. I was rooting for him and I loved seeing where he ended up. It's perfect and I'm so happy for him.
Lor and Nadir were the biggest highlights of the story. These former enemies are now firmly lovers and their love will topple mountains. Even if we started the book with them separated, seeing them fight to get back together was so good to witness and I adored that reunion. And the trust, the courage to be themselves with each other, and just the overwhelming love these two Primaries feel for each other makes their story something truly special.
The growth of Lor was amazing throughout the series, and especially in this book. She hasn't had the easiest of journeys so seeing her get the support of her found family and have the unwavering support from Nadir was everything while she had to make these impossible decisions and try to figure out how to not win the hearts of other kingdoms and queendoms and win her adversaries made for a great plot. I loved those political moments and her rawness in them. She is a diamond and she shines in here. And while she has grown a lot, she still makes mistakes and makes up for them and that's why I truly love her.
This is a fantastic conclusion and I'm so happy that I might've shed a few tears when I finished that last chapter. What a story.

and it concludes... I am quite sad this story is over, I really enjoyed this series. Nisha is a great story teller and I have loved everything I have read of hers.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing this read. All opinions are my own.
I'm really enjoying this series! I first came across it at my library, and was excited to continue reading with book 4. The stakes have been raised for Lor, who needs to figure out how to save Heart, keep Nadir from death's door, and defeat Zerra. I think my favorite development (besides Lor and Nadir's relationship) is Lor finding her family. The same girl we saw in book one who was scrappy and trying to stay alive is now a queen with powerful allies. Highly engaging, fast paced read that will keep you going all the way through.

Thank you to Forever Publishing and the author for an advanced readers copy of this title.
I squealed when I got approved for a copy of Tale of the Heart Queen. ♥️ I am a fan of the series and the characters and it being the last book I was ready to see where the story went and how it ended.
I was not disappointed as this book continued with the action, suspense, mystery and love. There are many moving pieces to this story and it came together beautifully in the end.
I would rate this book at 4.5/5⭐️ and overall a 5⭐️ series. I will continue to recommend this series!

DNF @ 32%
I really hate that I’m not finishing an ARC, but I simply couldn’t continue. The writing felt hollow and emotionless?
For me, the series peaked at Book 2. I thought Book 1 did a great job of world building and had lots of captivating twists and turns. Book 2 was elite with its plot and Lor and Nadir’s sexual tension. Book 3, on the other hand, was a mess. When it came to this book, I was simply bored and not at all invested.
I may just not be in the right headspace for this book. Perhaps I’d enjoy if it I binged each book back to back. I forgot a lot of plot points from Book 3 since I read it 7 months back.

I absolutely loved the Artefacts of Ouranos series and this was really bittersweet to have it come to an end!
It’s not easy to write an ending that wraps up all of the loose ends and I really feel like Nisha J. Tuli was able to do it flawlessly. Tale of the Heart Queen really helped me to understand the full scope and importance of including Aphelion and the Sun King beyond the initial trials in book 1 (other than obviously how much we love Gabriel). Tyr just put me in all the feelings and I’m happy for his ending as much as Lor’s and Nadir’s. Everything came back full circle in a way I hadn’t been expecting.
This Romantasy series is one I will always recommend for enemies to lovers, found family, fated mates, unique magic systems, and world building.

The perfect ending to a perfect series (I say while sobbing)
From the minute a bitch stole Lor’s soap (iykyk) I was absolutely hooked on this series. It’s bittersweet to see the Artefacts of Ouranos (@nishajtwrites) come to an end in this fourth & final book. I feel like I’ve grown with these characters & I love them so much for all their strengths & all their flaws. I’ve had the immense privilege of being an ARC reader for these books & I hold them dear to my heart.
Lor is one of my absolute favorite FMCs. She’s fierce, she’s brave, she takes no shit, she’s chaotic, & she’s loyal through & through. But we still see her feeling her feels!
Nadir is a top tier book boyfriend. This cold prince is really a softie & the absolute sweetest as long as you don’t threaten those he loves. Witnessing his character arc has been a true joy.
& then there are just so many other characters who are incredible!
I can promise you, you won’t want to miss Tale of the Heart Queen when it comes out on November 26, 2024!

I am so sad that this series has come to end. I did not expect to fell bad for the villians of the story but somehow I did. I maybe ven shed a tear for them. The personal growth that all the characters had experienced as well made my hear happy. Overall this story was wrapped up beutifully and is definetly on my reread list.

This book was the perfect ending to the series!! I’m obsessed with the entire story. I was never bored throughout this book and wanted to keep reading! The story was so unique, along with the magic system and I loved learning more about their world.
I’m so grateful I was able to recieve the ARC to the last book in the series, it will be in my heart forever!

Such an exciting story! It crescendoes with each page until the story you loved leaves you breathless once again!
Such a bittersweet moment when you realize it wraps up beautifully but the story is indeed at its end.
The spice and the romance are *chef’s kiss* and the friendships so well rounded !
Thank you Ms. Tuli for such an amazing story !

AMAZING ENDING!!!!🥰 This series easily made it into my top 3 favorite series and Nisha did not disappoint in making Tale of the Heart Queen a beautiful ending to a beautiful story!! 🥹 I’m so thankful for Netgalley and Forever publishing to have received an (e)arc of this book because I don’t think I could have waited to read the ending after the whirl wind of book 3!! 😭
I loved everything about this book! Lor and Nadirs relationship in this book was THRIVING! But also her relationships and found family with all of the people she met along the way was so beautiful😭 the love and community in this book made it so special to read!! The spice was AMAZING and beautifully written!!! And I loved reading the different points of view especially in the ending!! It wrapped up all the characters lives and their struggles throughout the story perfectly!!
Only reason I gave it 4 stars is because the first 3 books were better than this one and I felt like the passion and emotion for Lors pov was lacking compared to the first 3 books! But the whole series is a FIVE STAR series and a MUST READ!!! 😊

I have really enjoyed this series for the most part but I was a bit disappointed by this book. The character work has been good throughout the other books and I loved the tension between Lor and Nadir, but now that they are together in this book, their relationship kind of fell flat. I was really turned off by their reuniting scene when she is literally on death's doorstep and the first thing they do is hook up. Like, she could barely stand and was hallucinating, but that's what you do first?!? Anyway, as much as I loved the previous books I felt tlike this final book left some loose ends and was a bit anticlimactic.
