Week 44 Review: Lightbringer

From Goodreads:
Queen Rielle, pushed away from everything she loves, turns to Corien and his promises of glory. Meanwhile, whispers from the empirium slowly drive her mad, urging her to open the Gate. Separated from Audric and Ludivine, she embraces the role of Blood Queen and her place by Corien's side, determined to become the monster the world believes her to be.

In the future, Eliana arrives in the Empire's capital as a broken shell of herself. Betrayed and abandoned, she fights to keep her power at bay—and away from Corien, who will stop at nothing to travel back in time to Rielle, even if that means destroying her daughter.

But when the mysterious Prophet reveals themselves at last, everything changes, giving Rielle and Eliana a second chance for salvation—or the destruction their world has been dreading.

The incredible conclusion to the trilogy that started with the instant New York Times bestsellers Furyborn and Kingsbane!

In this epic finale to the Empirium Trilogy from New York Times bestselling author Claire Legrand, two queens, separated by a thousand years must face their ultimate destinies.

My Review:
Wow, this book was so fantastic! I've really enjoyed this trilogy, and I had a great time reading this book! I was a little apprehensive, because both Rielle and Eliana are is really bad situations when Kingsbane ended. But I had to see how they would get out of them!  

I think in this book we had the most perspectives. We started with Rielle and Eliana in the first book, we got a few more in the next, and this one, well, we had some side, but important characters, and I really enjoyed how the story came together! 

Rielle hasn't been my favourite character, and she is the Blood Queen, there's a darkness in her. But the way Corien manipulates her, it's hard to blame her for what she does, and that she does break away is really fantastic, and if not, things could've been so much worse. It was still heartbreaking, but I'm glad that she did! 

Oh, man, that ending! That was just killer, that climax, as well as the following chapters. It was bittersweet, because time travel does have a cost. As well as what Rielle had to do. But the things that she mentioned right before, well, makes me wonder if we're going to get a spin off book or series? 

This was a really great read, and I need to read that 2.5 book! And more by Claire Legrand!
