Bloodline Sorcerer Percival Endicott Whyborne and his husband Griffin Flaherty have enjoyed an unprecedented stretch of peace and quiet. Unfortunately, the calm is shattered by the arrival of a package from Griffin's brother Jack, who has uncovered a strange artifact while digging for gold in Alaska.

Amidst a wilderness of ice and stone, Griffin must either face his greatest fear-or lose everyone he loves.… (more)

I love how this series continues to evolve from its humble beginnings into so much more than I ever imagined, focusing more on the lore behind Widdershins, but never losing sight of Whyborne and Griffin’s relationship and their own personal growth.

The last book definitely hinted at some things to come, and this expanded on it, continuing to set the stage for some new end game in the works and a new exciting dynamic for these two favorite guys.

There’s no point in doing a long drawn out review. Just expect more tough challenges, new revelations, and dangerous situations. If you’ve gotten this far, then you’re obviously a fan, and this latest installment does not disappoint in the action, the mystery, or the love proclamations. Swoon!

Another great installment in a wonderful series, and an instant favorite!

Our adventurous trio got themselves in quite a pickle in this one. Things got really grim a couple of times, even though by now it’s perfectly obvious that none of them will ever come to any serious harm. It’s one of the reasons I’m addicted to this series - despite being so action-packed, it’s the quintessential comfort-read.

I loved how the friendship between Whyborne and Christine was addressed here. The way she decided to stay with him in the nest when she had an easy way out was everything. As far as I’m concerned, the two of them are #friendshipgoals.

Griffin’s POV was novel and added much to the story. Poor baby was put through the wringer, again. He just can’t get a break, can he. As always, his deepening relationship with Whyborne was one of the book’s strongest points. It’s amazing how, six full-length books and a couple of short stories in, Hawk still managed to keep their romance from going the slightest bit stale or boring.

Fantastic storyline (but that’s hardly new!); unexpected enemies and allies; startling discoveries; near-death experiences - in Hoarfrost, there’s that, and much more besides! ( )

This wasn't as emotionally impactful as some of them, but I enjoyed the adventure, and really like that Griffin is getting some POV chapters also! ( )
