What Caz Read

Of Hollowed Stars is the final book in the first trilogy in the Fate of the Embered series and is a fast paced, addictive dark fantasy that plunges readers back into a richly imagined world of cursed bloodlines, meddling gods, and fate-bound love. As Seryn hunts for answers after Gavrel vanishes into the Nether Void, prophecy, nightmare magic, and choice collide, forcing her to decide whether she’ll save the realms or doom them.

Seryn and Gavrel completely stolen my heart! Their bond is deep, steady, and beautifully earned, the kind that’s built over time, not handed to them by fate. They’ve fought tooth and nail for each other and for their world, pushing back against Elders and Ancients who refuse to give up their power. Nothing about their journey felt easy and every loss, every choice, every small win carried real weight.

Seryn’s character growth was one of my favourite parts of the book. Watching her step into her power and fully own who she is was incredibly satisfying. She’s fierce, driven, and an absolute force. And Gavrel? I’m completely gone for him. His loyalty is unwavering, his devotion quiet but intense, and his broody energy is spot on.

The worldbuilding was a standout too. It’s rich, immersive, and vividly described, and every new place felt alive and thoughtfully crafted rather than just a backdrop for the plot.

The romance between Seryn and Gavrel, a fierce FMC paired with a brooding MMC, delivered exactly what I was hoping for: emotional, intense, and layered with longing. The romance never felt rushed or convenient. It grew naturally, shaped by everything they endured together. Add in monsters, magic, mythology, dream realms, and portals, and this story became genuinely hard to put down.

Epic in scope and heavy on emotion, Of Hollowed Stars is a high stakes, spellbinding finale that delivers passion, sacrifice and a hard won defiance of destiny. At its heart this isn’t just a love story, it’s about grit, hope, and learning to choose yourself even when the odds are stacked sky high. I loved every second of it and absolutely devoured this book!

Here’s the synopsis

NIGHTMARES ECHO

When Gavrel vanishes into the twisted depths of the Nether Void, Seryn has no time to grieve. While dreams blur into nightmares and ancient power stirs within her, she unravels a prophecy rooted in her bloodline. Part demi-Ancient, part Nightshade, she may be the key to restoring—or destroying—the balance between realms.

SOULS ALIGN

Though their souls are bound by a golden thread, even fate-woven ties can fray. With the Fates tightening their grip, Seryn and Gavrel face the truth of their bond: prophecy or choice, sacrifice or salvation. Together, they’ll forge a path unwritten by the stars … and hope their love can endure the Void.

STARS COLLIDE

Across shifting nightmare-scapes and corrupted cities, Seryn must gather unlikely allies, awaken celestial magic, and confront the Ancient of Nightmares before the aether claims them. And in the chaos of colliding stars, she’ll risk everything to save a world already slipping into the darkness beyond.
