This book is told from Serilda’s point of view. She was cursed by the god of lies and has developed a talent for storytelling. Serilda and Gild cannot break the curses that tether their spirits to Adalheid’s haunted castle. There they remain trapped for eternity. On the night of the Endless Moon, the Erlking means to capture one of the seven gods and so be reunited with his lovers, Perchta, who has been banished to the underworld. But it soon becomes clear that the Erlking’s hunger for vengeance won’t be satisfied with a single wish, and his true intentions have the power to alter the mortal realm forever. Serilda and Gild have no choice but to thwart his plans, all the while solving the mystery of Gild’s forgotten name and freeing all the ghosts kept in servitude to the dark ones. As the evil forces gather, it seems only their love is strong enough to sustain them. This book is a young adult fantasy.
This series has been difficult. The world building wasn’t there and there wasn’t much character building expect that Serilda is a storyteller and she’s trying to save her boyfriend and she’s pregnant and protecting kids. I think I also struggled with this book as I didn’t understand all the God analogy of it. Serilda was a damsel in distress that was trying to save herself but just couldn’t and then rejected help and is still wanting to save herself but won’t leave Gild. Erikling’s got some back story in this, but I would have loved to have fallen for villain in this book rather than the MCs. Gild’s sister sort of saved this book and I would have loved for her to be the hero and then had to be getting the sunlight. I hated how it ended and I don’t think Serilda deserved the happy ending for being a mischievous liar.
