The Dawn and Its Light: The Night and Its Moon, Book 4

I read a lot of fantasy romance and I challenge anyone to find a series that is more creative, engrossing, heartbreaking and healing as The Night and its moon. The world building enchants and surprises throughout the series. The characters are deep enough to elicit emotions from this reader who is difficult to move to tears or laugh at the humor. I appreciate the LGBTQ relationships. They challenged me to see through experiences that I’ve never had. It is good to read romance that is written with sophistication and depth where the spice isn’t so strong that is unpalatable. This series is a dish with savoring. Thank you Piper CJ for writing for a deeper audience!

I really enjoyed this read. The only part I didn't enjoy was the forced romance between Nox and Amaris. I really didn't feel like there was enough chemistry for a romantic relationship between the two of them. It felt more like a sisterly relationship. There was chemistry between all of the other pairings. There was more chemistry between Yaz and Nox than her and Amaris. Just my two cents. I just felt like it was a forced trope to fulfill a need for poly relationships in literature. Curious to see if CJ writes another book in the series. Other than the forced romance, this storyline was the most engaging of the four in my opinion. I really enjoyed exploring the new land of Sulgrave. I really enjoyed the conflict and the resolution.

This was my favorite book in the series! There was so much that happened, so many different places on the Gyrradin continent visited, and so many questions answered (or not answered, lol). It was hard going into this knowing it was the end of the series for these particular characters. The novel did not disappoint in the slightest! Since this is the last novel in the series, I’d like to touch on more of my opinion of the romantic relationships. I LOVED having characters who were not only bisexual, but also polyamorous (though that term is not used.. and it’s a loose association to that term tbh). There were love triangles, but there wasn’t any jealousy. It was wonderful to have that without having other characters hurt and angry. It was a beautiful dynamic with Amaris and Gadriel as well as with Nox and Malik… and of course between Amaris and Nox. Just knowing that the love that the characters shared between each other wasn’t fodder for bruised egos and jealous tempers, but instead was respected and honored, for they respected, honored, and loved each other (whether romantically, platonically, or both). I sobbed at the end of the series as I wasn’t ready for it to end (who ever is with a good series though?!). Thank you Piper, for creating such well-rounded, loving, queer characters. As a queer person myself, THANK YOU for writing these characters!! It was painful to let them go, but imho, it’s the sign of a talented, creative, goddess-blessed author! ♥️

This book was a wonderful ending to an amazing series. Made me feel all the feels and I feel good about the way it ended. Lovely book and lovely series

I couldn't buy all the books in this series fast enough! Great story, world building, character development, magic system. I love that all the characters have flaws that make them them. I will read & buy EVERYTHING Piper CJ! Huge fan
