I am so sad to think that this is the last book of Draven and Morgan's story but I'm also so happy that I was able to be a part of this magical ride! This book really wrapped up the story so beautifully and tied a nice bow around this story and all its characters.

King Arthur legends have always held a special place in my heart and this book weaselled its way in and made itself right at home and I couldn't be happier about that. Briar did a beautiful job giving the characters such a beautiful finale and one I'll be thinking about for a while. The book was action packed, had romance, really completed the entire story so perfectly!

What a bittersweet moment.

Thank you NetGalley & Briar for an eARC in exchange for an honest review!

I have honestly just been sitting in a stupor for the past few days since finishing this book. THIS SERIES - oh, this wonderful, magical, spicy, fantastical, heartbreaking series. It is truly so well crafted - from the character development, to the spice, to the PLOT TWISTS - Briar Boleyn, you have outdone yourself. This is absolutely my favourite Arthurian retelling and one of my favourite romantasy series.

This series just kept getting better and better - I loved watching the relationship between Morgan and Draven develop, and I did not expect all of those revelations! I sighed, giggled, cried, gasped, and felt all the feels while reading Knight of the Goddess. I will admit that it felt as if my heart kept getting ripped out one chapter after another from the 70%-90% marks of the book (with some spice sprinkled in to ease the pain). Despite the heartbreak, the ending was EPIC and all the buildup of the different subplots came together really well.

I am truly going to miss all of these amazing characters and the thoroughly developed world building and plot development. Gwen, Lancelet, Hawl, Gawain, Morgan and Draven will all have a special spot in my heart (especially Draven - my new MGBB (morally grey book boyfriend).

Thank you so much to NetGalley, Victory Editing and Briar Boleyn for providing me with an ARC of Knight of the Goddess in exchange for an honest review.

First of all, thank you to Net Galley, Victory Editing and Briar Boleyn for access to this book in exchange for an honest review.

I ate this book up. Seriously had trouble pacing myself so I didn’t finish it all in one sitting. Things moved quickly and there were curveballs I didn’t see coming.

Morgan is just as brave but not as harsh as some of the FMC’s that I have read recently. I loved the main relationship and enjoyed all the side characters. By book four, you really know who they are.

Nightclaw destroyed me in a way that I haven’t felt since Harry Potter. I’m trying to avoid spoilers so I’ll leave it at that.

I ended up really loving this whole series and am going to figure out where to order physical copies.

I t was so bittersweet to say goodbye to this series, as I have absolutely loved it. This spin on the Camelot story sucked me in right away. Knight of the Goddess tied up so many loose ends as well as surprising me throughout. Definitely recommend

Rating: 5/5
I received eARC for my honest opinion.

This is the fourth and final installment of Blood of a Fae series and wow did Briar knock it out with this book. I am so happy with the ending of this book but at the same time I didn’t want to finish this book because I knew that would mean Morgan and Draven story was at its end. However, with that said I was able to finish this book in 2 days, I couldn’t find myself able to keep it down for very long. I will be recommending this author and this series to anyone who is interested in fantasy romance.

I don’t really know where to start because I feel like I will give away parts of the book and I don’t want to. So instead, in this book you will have action, drama, hard choices, death, happiness, romance, great pace, and amazing world building. Opps, I almost forgot… also some amazing characters, that you will come to love as I have.

This book has some amazing world building, the plot is fun and exciting with new twists and turns in the plot. I loved that it kept me on my toes throughout the book, just when I thought I figured out something, something new would happen and I would be so shocked that I couldn’t put the book down. I loved that with this book you really do get a feeling of everything all wrapped up in their story and with nothing left unsaid. I found with Briar writing you will be swept away into the world that she is painting for you, and you will be able to feel the characters emotions, you will be right there with them fighting, with them through the hard times and with them through the amazing wins. You will find magic, mythical creatures, betrayal, and some great steamy scenes.


I loved that you have multiple POVs throughout the book and it’s not hard to know who’s POV it is now because she has it clearly marked at the start of each chapter. I loved that you got to see what they were thinking about the issues that they faced and how they would be feeling the same way as another character or why they were feeling different. It really helped the reads connect to the characters and the events that happened.

All I will say now is that it is one of my favorite series this year and last year that I have read, and it will hold a special place in my heart. I am also so excited to read the next book that Briar is writing and the sneak peak of On Wings of Blood. I can’t wait to read this book now.

I want to thank NetGalley and Starwater Press for the opportunity to review this book.

Sad to be done with the journey of Morgan and Draven. This book had several twists I definitely didn't see coming! I enjoyed the rest of Morgan and Draven's tale. I enjoyed following the journey as they make there way to confront Morgan's father. The travel portion of the journey is a bit slow but I enjoyed the pace. It definitely speeds up once you pass halfway and they are close to the mountain. Definitely had some tears for this one so be prepared. Overall the series as a whole was great and highly suggest it.

Thank you to Netgalley for a copy of this book, I love the Blood of a Fae series!

I really don’t want this series to end! While Knight wraps up the story nicely, there is so much more to tell. Briar continues to hurt my feelings in the best of ways. The chapters with Medra were SO good, I was not expecting a POV from her at all but it was great how she was so integral to the story and it was written in a way that gave her an arc in one book - very clever. I also love how her friends have their own character developments - for the most part, no one is there to simply advance Morgan and Draven, which I appreciated.

The pace kept me anticipating and on my toes. You couldn’t get too comfortable but there were enough light hearted parts to keep you smiling through the heartbreak, and isn’t that what life is all about? A gem of a fantasy series.

This book is the fourth and final book in the Blood of the Fae series. To avoid spoilers I will not be providing a summary for this book. With that being said this book was absolutely amazing and I feel that it was the perfect conclusion to this series. Going into this book I was sad for this to be the end, but at the same time excited to see what would happen. I did not expect this ending at all and was really surprised with the events in this book! While some parts of this book were sad, I felt that they were needed and made this book even better in the end. Overall I loved not just this book but this series and I can't wait to see what Briar Boleyn puts out next!

First off, thank you NetGalley, Briar Boleyn and Starwater Press for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I've loved this series and couldn't wait for Knight of the Goddess to come out. Ending a series is tricky and Knight of the Goddess was hit or miss for me.

What I liked
- I love Morgan and Draven. They are one of my favorite book couples and they did not disappoint in this book 😍
- Without spoiling too much, I like that this book had real consequences and was pretty devastating. Briar Boleyn took risks I wish other authors would take when ending a series.

What I didn't love
- The end felt like it kind of came out of nowhere and wrapped up really quickly. I wish there were more clues along the way and that it had been drawn out a bit longer rather then have so much time on the journey.

Overall I loved this series and highly recommend.

Thank you NetGalley for the eARC. I got this because it was a full set of 4 . It didn't look familiar but as i began book 1 i realized I had read book 1 and loved it so I immediately dived in. I couldn't stop reading them which bring us here, to book 4 and the end of the story I had grown to love. I was so sad for this to come to an end. We had lost so many main characters and I was almost afraid to keep going for fear of who might be next. The ending was what I expected, everyone together and happy. Happy endings for all. But the journey to get there was so wonderful and exciting that I would gladly read them all again. Also, the covers are exquisite.

The fourth and final installment of this series met every expectation. All of our favourite heros returned, we watched some grow. We watched some... well we said goodbye to some friends too. It was heart warming, heart breaking and a lovely HEA. The final battle scene had me speed reading and ignoring my children. I loved this series and would recommend it to any fantasy/romantasy reader who also likes a tipple of arthurian lore on the side. Thanks Briar Boleyn this series will stay with me forever!

Knight of the Goddess was a good concluding book, and it wrapped up the entire series in a nice, neat way. The action started much earlier than the previous books, which I liked, and it was easier to get into the book much sooner. The plot dipped a bit in the middle and I did find myself questioning how relevant some scenes were, but overall, the pacing was good. I didn't feel like any of the character deaths were unnecessary, and while I wasn't overcome with emotion at any point, I did feel for the characters and what they went through. It was interesting to see Morgan and Draven deal with their grief, of their friends, and the guilt of leaving Medra behind. I did find myself feeling a bit lost during the end battle. The transition from the journey to the final fight was a bit harsh and intense, and confused me.

Overall, a good book to conclude a good series!

This book broke my heart. I was so sad a few times but with that being said I loved it.
The ending left me with more questions as to where the fae originally came from. I hope the spin off is just as good as this because it was amazing.

Oh wow, what an ending to this story. I finished this book in record time as I could not put it down. This was a good conclusion to the series and one of the better series I have read in the last few years. I cant believe we are now done with Morgan and Dravens story. I have so many feelings about this series..

I do want to know what Crescent has done to Briar to deserve this.. this man could not get a break or a happy ending.. my heart hurts for the guy.

I do feel that the final part of the book, the conclusion was a bit rushed after many chapters of the journey to get to the mountain to poof the big fight and the big villian all being gone and done for, and was hoping for a bigger part of Morgan and Draven. But in the end i really loved this book and this series, would recommand it to everyone!

Loved! Great series!

This is the last book of this series. With Morgan and Draven responsible for their new niece, Medra, and Kaye still in a coma, the plan to stop Morgan's birth father isn't going to be easy to achieve. Her father has sent her brothers and sisters after her to cause chaos in other kingdoms; hopefully catching her in the process.

Her father has been dream walking with Morgan every night, trying to lure her back to him. He needs her powers now more than anything. But when he finds out about his granddaughter, Medra, he wants them both.

Draven refuses to let anything bad happen to his mate. Knowing that her father is in her dreams every night scares him. Morgan and company decide to go to her father with the grail and Excalibur, hoping that he'll have the spear so all three can be destroyed. If they are all destroyed, her father will die at last!

But they have big obstacles along the way to conquer and sadly enough, not everyone makes it to the end.

A great read!

Knight of the Goddess (Blood of a Fae, Book 4) - Briar Boleyn

I was lucky enough to get an ARC copy of this story.

Briar Boleyn is a Canadian author, however that is her pen name. Her real name being Fenna Edgewood – a bestselling romance author, with books such as her Gardner Girls series.



Arthur is now dead, so who can blame Morgan and Draven for hoping for a chance at peace now. But the danger is far from over and closer than they ever thought. Leaving orphaned little Medra in the care of their most trusted friends and people – leaving on a quest to end the evil once and for all.

Morgan and Draven are on a quest to find all three cursed objects and destroy them all – the sword, the grail and the spear. They have the sword and the grail yet the whereabouts of the spear still allude them, but they keep pressing on – to keep little Medra and their people safe.

Yet the closer they come to succeeding on their quest the more they learn, the more secrets thought lost to time and legend they slowly begin to uncover. Not everything is as it seems, the legends they were told did not come to pass or occur as they were taught – even they are not who they really think they are.

Knowing and learning these truths could threaten to undo it all if they let it...



“Knight of the Goddess” is the conclusion to Briar Boleyn’s Blood of a Far series. After the action and the writing of the first three stories in this series I was expecting big things from this last instalment of the series. While it was an enjoyable read it did leave me wanting a little. I expected more action, more thrills and more suspense – more character play in the interactions especially between Morgan and Draven. Everything felt a little mediocre and lackluster with some scenes seemingly not been written to their full conclusion.

The one where everything is terrible and all your favorites die. This is the fourth and final book in the story, in which your heroes go on an epic journey to try to kill a god.

I enjoyed this book, but in a lot of ways it felt rushed and often didn’t wrap things up in a way that felt satisfying. There were a lot of things that I wish had been explored in more depth, such as what happened with Rychel, and how Medra came to be how she was. I’d have loved more history about how the grail, sword, and spear came to be, and more insight into the origins and courts of the fae.

Even so, I enjoyed the series and am definitely looking forward to reading her upcoming spin-off series when it’s available!
