I never reviewed this the previous times I read this But here I go, in this book our Eden has got a bit more sense and has grown a bit more so you get a lot less whining from her, probably because of all her losses she is finally getting it how serious her whole situation is. It made me so happy how she stood up to Kiran, at some point love can only take you so far but at the cost of one's family it just doesn't make sense. I find that the more I reread this series the more I really dislike Kiran and wish she continues to stay with Jericho.
I was definitely more emotional in this book and at the same time still frustrated with how easily Eden is misguided but I get it, this is a lot for her and I am trying my hardest to empathize with show more her, she is really trying and she is only just a kid after all.
I enjoyed the character growth of Eden despite some of her annoying traits and I enjoyed Sebastian's growth as well. I want more of Jericho though, like a whole lot more

Overall I highly recommend this book, it's a fast read you fall in love with most of the characters and you have those you love to hate, what more can you ask for πŸ˜„.

Finished the innocent, fragile and indecisive heroin who followed blindly the man of her life, here comes a young woman seeking revenge and answers to her questions. And it rocks …

Eden has seen her world burst out from under her feet. To manage her sorrow for all the losses that her life has been through in the blink of an eye, she hides behind revenge, rage and anger to advance. Her eventful journey to rebuild the resistance, fighting against the monarchy and save those she loves takes her in captivating countries for exciting adventures.

A frantic pace for this third component still brilliantly portrayed by Rachel Higginson. All the ingredients, that I had touched and excited me in the first two volumes, have been able to be show more preserved and transposed into a darker, more violent world but equally fascinating.

Thus, if we see less of certain characters like Avalon, whose humor made ​​me smile many times in previous adventures, the author introduces us to new endearing or frightening characters depending on the camp in which they appear.
Rachel Higginson has reinvented herself while continuing to captivate the reader with her fantastic story. The action scenes are multiplied and they follow each other without leaving the reader time to catch its breath. Beautiful energy!

A novel more violent but also more mature in the sentiments expressed by the characters. Eden's blind love has been tarnished by Kiran's betrayal. The succession of painful trials transformed the girl and make her take her life in her own hands. The reader then witness the birth of a strong but injured woman into a leader with responsibilities difficult to assume. With Jericho at her side, friendship evolves into deeper emotions until a new incredible ending.

I still felt a lot of pleasure in reading this series that experienced no fatigue after three volumes. The author has kept my interest while continuing to entertain me and amaze me. Nicely done.
Can't wait for the last album "Endless Magic"!

Don't have much I wan to say about Fearless Magic but here goes. Eden continues to infuriate me, but she is maturing and making better decisions. She's still a big talker or should I say her inner monologue is a big talker; she will have an epiphany and promise herself to change things but then she most often backtracks. I hope things work out for her and Jericho. It would be nice to hear from Avalon and Jericho to see how their dealing with Eden's choices but that might not happen. Still really love the series it draws me in and brings out my emotions for and towards the characters. I've never been so verbal towards a book before.
This series started out fairly good now it is just a whining teenage girl who one minute is leading a group of rebels, and fearlessly using her magic to being stupidly in love with the boy who betrayed her, killed her Grandfather and kidnapped her brother. Oh but she has every intention of killing him until she has several chances and doesn't because she loves him or he kisses her or she hates him so much she can't or some other stupid reason. I'm pretty sure even as a teenager I would have found her annoying.
I really wish I could give another half a star to this book. I cannot give it a full 5 as the grammar is still incorrect in places and words are misused as well as a certain few inconsistencies in the plot but I think it deserves slightly more than the 4 I have given the previous two books in this series.
It is in this book that Eden finally comes into her own. The decisions she makes and the inner turmoil of her thoughts that we as a reader have been subject to throughout the series finally stop sounding like the rantings of an immature schoolgirl and finally sound like someone we can relate too. She is growing up and taking charge and finally starting to work everything out for herself. Instead of childish stubbornness her fiery side show more is turning into feistiness and starting to make a really worthwhile protagonist show less
This book picks up right where book 2 ended.
Eden has decisions to make with limited knowledge.
We see more of the character Jericho.
Excellent scenes with Eden and Kieran.
