But this is Karigan, so you know she won’t let it keep her from doing her duty. She always finds a well of strength when needed, and it’s why I enjoy her so much. I can’t say for certain as I have always enjoyed Karigan, so it felt like a reasonable amount of upset. At least not until she returned to her time.įor readers who may have found Karigan whiny in past books (not my word, but one I have seen mentioned), you may feel some of the same issues with this one. Poor Karigan finally found love with someone where there were no restraints, it was wonderful for her. But not so much that I felt it overdone or a departure from how she should be. In some ways, it was overwhelming, and impacted her personality a bit. She misses him deeply and feels guilt over leaving him, not knowing if he is still alive or not. Karigan is distraught and heartbroken over leaving Cade behind. For those that were less than thrilled, fear not, this book is much in line with the first 4 books in the series. I know not everyone was thrilled with the change in setting/characters/time period with the last book, though I personally really enjoyed it. With Firebrand, Karigan returns to her own time, so it includes many of our favorite characters from books past. Maybe it is because I this is one of the first series I read in the fantasy genre, but I just find them to be very addictive, comfort reads that make me want to curl up with it until I finish. There is something about returning to read a new book the Green Rider series that just makes me happy. Just a quick reminder that while my review is spoiler free for Firebrand, there are likely spoilers for the previous books.

This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. Thanks to Daw Books for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
