Send the messengers for the Faery Courts. This is the end. The Summer King is missing; the Dark Court is bleeding; and a stranger walks the streets of Huntsdale, his presence signifying the deaths of powerful fey. Aislinn tends to the Summer Court, searching for her absent king and yearning for Seth. Torn between his new queen and his old love, Keenan works from afar to strengthen his court against the coming war. Donia longs for fiery passion even as she coolly readies the Winter Court for battle. And Seth, sworn brother of the Dark King and heir to the High Queen, is about to make a mistake that could cost his life. Love, despair, and betrayal ignite the Faery Courts, and in the final conflict, some will win...and some will lose everything. The thrilling conclusion to Melissa Marr's New York Times bestselling Wicked Lovely series will leave readers breathless.Declare Regarding Books Darkest Mercy (Wicked Lovely #5)

While Seth was important in several ways, continuing to be my favourite character in the series as he made it possible for Bananach to be defeated, I didn't like how he was pushed off onto the sidelines for most of the action, even though he'd been training to fight in the inevitable battle. I wanted something else for poor Niall, my second-favourite character in the series, but he seemed more broken than ever. Sorcha was relegated to a small part as worried but inactive mother and not seenI've delayed my review of Darkest Mercy for two days because I'm not sure what I want to write. First, that i am disappointed -this is, by far, the worst in the Wicked Lovely series. And it is really a pity because, being the final installment, it kind of spoils my general impression on the series. I loved Wicked Lovely and even Ink Exchange, which was my least favorite, is better than this.The plot is confusing to put it mildly, and there is really no action throughout all the book, save for
Actual Rating: 4.5 stars.All of the Faerie courts are in peril and both Keenan and Seth are missing. Devoid of the experience and advantages of the other faery monarchs, Aislinn is doing her best to rule and prepare for the impending War being incited by the malevolent Bananach. But without the Summer King and her newly turned faery lover at her side, how will she protect her already weakened court from destruction?Apparently I'd forgotten exactly how much I enjoy Melissa Marr's writing. She has
Darkest Mercy was pretty much everything I thought it would be. Melissa Marr tied up all the loose ends from the previous novels in the series. I wasn't super thrilled to read this book because, as usual, Melissa Marr's writing style tends to throw me for a loop initially. But I quickly became enthralled in the story. I was excited to see that most of the book was full of startling revelations from all of our characters. It was definitely enough to keep me turning pages. In the final Wicked
Darkest Mercy was brilliant. I'm in awe! I have no other words to describe it other than it had everything you ever wished for an ending of a series! It was enthralling, full of emotions, it has characters that will surprise you and you will shed tears, but in the end you will close the book and have closure. It has the perfect balance between light and dark. I thank Mrs Marr from the bottom of my heart for this final piece of awesomeness! Ever since I started Wicked Lovely I was fascinated with
So. I've made it to the end of the story and I'm left with the feeling that Marr has a better story in her head that what actually appears on the page. While she might know what she means, she hasn't expressed it particularly well. Here's what I think: If you're going to continue to refer to a character's backstory, then at some point you have to tell me that backstory or the current story has no foundation. Also, if you're going to ramp off on these tangents(Devlin/Ani/Rae) they need to
I finished it...and my heart is broken.I knew I was going to have to finish it eventually...and now the Wicked Lovely series is done. Finito. No more. I sigh in sadness.I know what you'll say..."But, Stephanie, there's still Desert Tales and Fairy Tales and Nighmares, plus Love Struck which is a novella set with water fae. Yes, there are still a couple offshoots of the main storyline, but it's not the same. Oh, yes, I'll read them, but the core series is done. Ash and Seth and Keenan and Donia
