The first bit is a little dragged out. It does get better and everything gets wrapped up. I really liked the first book and fell for these characters which is why I continued the series. I'm glad it's finished and in a way that fit the story. I still don't think we needed Gabriel's POV.

I had one thing bookmarked in the first chapter and that was one thing I wish romance books did more often! Which is not believing someone they know the MMC doesn't trust. This book almost got an automatic 5 stars just for that. Alas it got 5 stars because this book is AMAZING! The twists and turns. Things you just never saw coming. Such a stunning book I tried to slow down reading because I knew I would miss this world. I am a little curious as to where FMC's siblings will end up. I would absolutely read their own series too. This world, these characters are all amazing and I truly fell in love with them while bingeing these books this year. While this was not my favorite book of the series, this absolutely was my favorite series of the year! I cannot wait to see what comes from Nisha j. Tuli next!! I will absolutely be keeping my eyes peeled for her.

Tale of the Heart Queen is the final book in this series, and it was a good read. I absolutely loved the previous book but, in this story, there were a few parts that I thought were a bit slow and it made the story drag at times. However, overall, it was a good getting to see the characters get either their well-deserved HEA or knowing how they met their downfall. Nadir is gone and Lor is desperately trying to find a way to bring him back after losing control of her powers. Her cries are heard but they come with requirements. Lor must journey alone to acquire something for Zerra in order to save Nadir, but Zerra also desires someone that's not hers to claim and she's okay with lying if she needs to if it gets her what she wants. Gabriel is dealing with the aftermath of the attack and Atlas betrayal and King Rion is even more determined to get his hands on Lor. Both Atlas and Rion finally get what they deserve in very different ways, and an unexpected apology was issued. This book gives us a lot of Rion's backstory and how his choice of power over love set a lot of things into action when it came to him. This story was full of revenge, secrets, lies, battles, attacks, destruction, deaths, sacrifices, destinies fulfilled, reunions, regrets, forgiveness, tearful goodbyes, apologies, freedoms, steamy scenes, love and ends with a HEA. This was not a short story, but I think readers will be happy with the ending of this series.

Thank you to NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for this free eARC of Tale of the Heart Queen.

This has been a 5 start series from the start and the final installment, Tale of the Heart Queen, was no exception.

Tale of the Heart Queen is in multiple POVs and brings us back full circle. You can tell Nisha put her heart and soul into this book, and I was riding the rollercoaster of emotions the entire time.

My favorite elements of this book:
- Badass FMC
- Fated Mates
- Save the World
- Call backs to the previous books
- No loose ends/all plots are brought to conclusion perfectly
- Family Redemption

If you are a fan of Aelin Galathynius/Throne of Glass, you will love the Artefacts of Ouranos series FMC, Lor.

I became so attached to these characters, and was sad to see the series come to an end. I am satisfied in the conclusion of a great series, although it felt bittersweet. I have become a big fan of Nisha’s writing style and look forward to reading everything else she’s written and everything else she writes in the future.

4.75 stars!

What an ending! This book gave me everything I hoped it would. I'm sad for the series to end but I love how the author wrapped everything up.

I highly recommend this series to anyone who loves romantasy! Wicked royals, deadly trials, fae magic, a lost Queen, a stabby heroine, found family…what more could you want?

I will continue to read anything Ms. Tuli writes!

If you’ve seen my previous review of the other Artefacts of Ouranos novels (hint: it was one of the first series reviews I ever posted on this account!), you already know that I love these books. I’ve enjoyed each novel in the series more than the last; the story has kept getting progressively stronger with each release. ♥️⚡️👑✨

So, when I tell you that I was absofreakinglutely THRILLED by the opportunity to read this book before its official publication date in November, I am in no way exaggerating. I was very, very, very stoked.

I’m happy to report that this conclusion did not disappoint (although I’ll admit I still think the third book in the series, Fate of the Sun King, is my personal favorite).

Tale of the Heart Queen took me on quite a journey, and I was ultimately very satisfied with the ending. It’s always bittersweet to say goodbye to something you’ve enjoyed so much, but man, was the adventure fun while it lasted.

I cannot wait for everyone else to get their hands on this book—and if you haven’t read the other books in the Artefacts of Ouranos series, I highly recommend them!

*Thank you to Forever and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for my honest review*

This absolute chonk of a book was the ending I needed! And given the finale of Fate of the Sun King, we NEEDED it. There's steam, there's intrigue, there's lore, there's EVERYTHING. I loved all of the PoVs and timelines, especially the new characters we get to meet. Zerra is the worst of course, but it was nice getting to see her pettiness on the page. I don't think there were any particular huge twists or surprises, but that's because everything was foreshadowed so well.

Nisha J Tuli is seriously a master at her craft and this is a series that I'll keep recommending until the end of time.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing us to finish out the Artifacts of Ouranos series early! I absolutely loved getting to hear the end of the queen of heart story. A lot happens in this book which at times can be a bit overwhelming but overall the pacing was good and the story was coherent and thoughtful. Absolutely in love with our boy, Nadir and Lor, as they navigate these latest trials. The surrounding characters are in the alive in an away that adds to the depth of the story. Would recommend to anyone looking for an action packing romantacy!

I was lucky enough to receive an eARC of Tale of the Heart Queen and boy did it live up to my expectations!!! It was the perfect ending to Lor’s tale. Action, adventure, love, family, it was all there. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. I’m so thankful to have had the opportunity to read this early and am so excited for its full release in November!

The perfect conclusion of an amazing series. I absolutely LOVED it all - I don't want to give away anything in my review so I won't say anything specific. I was beyond excited to have snagged an ARC of this series, it's one of my favorites and the cliffhanger in Fate of the Sun King was killing me. I had to know Nadir's fate ASAP. I downloaded and read it as soon as I was home from work the day I got it. If I didn't want to savor and take my time with this book knowing it was the last one in the series, I would have read it in one sitting it was so good.

If you thought the previous books had twists and turns, this one is a cross-country race in the mountains. Nisha brought back ALL the characters in this one and we get to see, learn, and explore more of the world she has built. There's betrayals, spice, trickery, magic, redemptions, love, battles, and did I mention spice? I will never not recommend this series or anything by Nisha J. Tuli.

Thank you NetGalley, Nisha, and anyone else who made it possible for me to get an ARC. It had made my entire week. I look forward to see what she will come up with next <3.

Thank you to Forever and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review

I would recommend if you're looking for (Spoilers)

-m/f fantasy romance
-fated mates
-last book in the series
-desi rep

I won't say much since it's the final book in the series but I was along for the ride, I've enjoyed this series so much and honestly I'm so excited to just go back and reread to see all these little easter eggs that Nisha laid out. An incredible romantasy series.

holy crap what can I say other than this was the perfect ending to this 4 book Romantasy series. Picking up after the horrible cliffhanger of fate of the sun king we follow lor, nadir, Gabriel, and roin (both in past and present). An absolutely amazing end to the series. I couldn't put this book down, flipping the pages to see what happened next. A story that had me going through all the emotions. Lor and nadir go through hell and back to try and meet the goals of every one else. Everyone wants something from lor, whether it be killing her or wanting her to be queen or something else entirely. Loose ends from the other three books are wrapped up nice and neat that leaves the reader with a sense of contentment. This book is probably one of the spicier of the four books. I don't think I'll be able to stop thinking about this book for a long time.

Tale of the Heart Queen
by: Nisha J. Tuli

My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

This was a satisfying ending for Lor’s story for the most part. Filled with lots of action and spice (rating: 🌶️🌶️🌶️), if you liked books 1-3, you will enjoy this one!

Some of the areas I had small quibbles with were aspects that I personally don’t like, hence the lower rating. Overall, it was a fantastic series and I enjoyed it!

A must read if you like:
👑 Sassy FMC
🗡️ Fated Mates
👑 Save the World
🗡️ HEA for everyone

Thank you to NetGalley and Grand Central Publishing for providing me an eARC.

I stayed up WAYYYYYYYYY to late to finish this and it wrapped up all the loose ends I was screeching about throughout the series. This series felt like The Magicians meets Captain Planet meets ACOTAR with a dash of The Hunger Games and it was a WILD, EPIC, RIDE.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. What a truly beautiful and magnificent read! This is the final book of the Artefacts of Ouranos series. I’m so very sad to say good bye to these unforgettable characters and their world. This final installment did not disappoint! I appreciated the fact that this story left no rock unturned, no deed left unpunished. The story of Lor has captivated my heart through all of these books. The loss she has endured, the courage she kept, and the strength both her body and soul released was amazing. She will do anything for those she loves, even if that means going all the way into the Underworld. Who will stand by her? Who will lose themselves in the final tasks of the Artefacts? How far will Lor go to be with Nadir? This story is magical, action packed, hits you with the spice, and will keep you on the edge until the end. Have some tissues at your side as well… you may just need them. Preorder now! This book is available 11-26-24. #book #booklover #bookstagram #books #bookseries #booksbooksbooks #booknerd #bookworms #reading #read #review #bookreview #bookreviews #bookreviewer #arc #bookarc #nishatuli #netgalley #foreverpublishing

Amazing conclusion to one of my favorite series. The pacing was great and all the little plot points came together. I love Nisha J. Tuli’s writing style and her characters. I can’t wait to see what see comes up with next. I’m

This was the perfect ending to an amazing series! I genuinely cried because it was over. The callbacks to the other books, just perfection! The wrap up for these characters who have lived rent free in my mind for a year was absolute perfection.

Thank you for this Nisha, it was an adventure I'll cherish forever! 😭💕

This was an amazing conclusion to a series which I loved so much! There were so many points in this book where I had absolutely no idea what was going to happen next and it kept me engaged the whole time. As it neared the end I was worried that it would be rushed but I was so wrong! The way each character’s story ends is perfect and we are left with the finality of those choices but also the possibility of what is to come in their future. I’m kind of sad that there will be no more new stories of Lor and Nadir and the gang. But hey, maybe I’ll just go back and read it all again.
Thank you Nisha and NetGalley for allowing me the absolute pleasure of getting to read this early!!!

I am so sad that this series is over, but so happy that everything ties up so nicely. It was a little too easy maybe? This book feels a little rushed. Everything is straight to the point and resolved a little too quickly I think. I think we could have split this into 2 books and taken our time with this huge feats that Lor has to go through. Like, the search for the Arks and the bonding be one section, have that book end on a cliffhanger, and then finish with the lay book about the Underworld adventures and I would’ve loved to see more into the rebuilding of the Heart Queendom. I would read 8 more books about this world honestly ❤️

Tale of the Heart Queen

Wow what an ending to an amazing series. The Artefacts of Ouranos is easily a top favorite series with an addictive romance and action packed storyline.

I loved this book the most because it had some amazing full circle moments and tied off all the storylines with an amazing bow.

I loved getting the different point of views with Lor, Nadir, Gabriel and King Rion. You learn so much about the cause of all of his actions in this book, and I am so glad for that. The action was nonstop and the plot twists hit left and right. There was so much heartbreak and loss in this book. It was the spiciest book of the series, but the spicy scenes were in all the right places. There was also a very good ending, and I am quite sad to leave this world. Nisha did an amazing job from start to finish. Excellent book, 5 stars!!
