Book Review: Creatures of Light by Emily B. Martin

Emily B. Martin’s trilogy of queens comes to an end with Creatures of Light, a breathtaking finale that ties up loose ends and left me aching for more even as I celebrated such a glorious end. I call this series a trilogy of queens because each book is written from the perspective of a different, strong woman.  In Woodwalker, we followed ranger Mae on her journey to reclaim her place in her home country.  In Ashes to Fire, we watched Mona fight to keep her country free from their former conquerors.  And in Creatures of Light, Gemma risks everything to preserve her dreams for her own country even as her country condemns her actions.
