The Sex Wizards series was a series I already absolutely loved, but this book took it to a whole next level.
I think the biggest difference this book has compared to it's others that this feels like an epic fantasy journey. An epic fantasy journey filled with amazing smutty moments. There is a lot more plot in this book that the previous installments had less off, but at no point was this negative. Honestly, it made the experience of reading this book even better. The more plot this series adds to the books, the more deeply I care about each of the characters, and in turn that makes every sexual encounter more intense and fun.
This book follows Dom on his journey towards the other tower in Immenbach. If I'm honest, beforehand I wasn't excited about the fact Dom and Olbric were going to be seprated. Their scenes together were usually one of my favorites and missing that seemed like a loss. But oh boy was I wrong. Dom had so much fun and good times with the other people in his traveling group. There were many great moments of smutty scenes that were absolutely perfect. So damn hot holy shit.
Olbric howerver... he's very alone. Gosh did that feel painful to read at first. I am so so proud of him growing in his gender identity and personally as a trans person I love it so much we're a part of his exploration. But him going through all that without Dom was so sad to see. Cancassi is a great support though and I loved them together taking care of each other. But I cannot stay silent about Arlon taking care of Olbric either. Let's just say that Arlon is PEAK DADDY and I think every sub (or switch) needs one in their live. The way he took care of Dom in previous books already had me swoon so hard, but then now with Olbric, people I am weak.
This book also had me on the edge of my seat towards the end. It really got intense and dangerous for everyone I cared about. It was a lot, but in a good way. It made me tense and want to read as fast as possible to make sure everyone I care about is safe. Moments like that can be amazing in books and I thoroughly enjoyed it in this one. The story gripped me hard and intense during the latter half of the book. The way it concluded it made it all feel so worth it and it was an amazing read.
Concluding this review it makes me want to say that with every book in this series it gets better and I start recommending it to my friends more and more.
I received an eARC and this was my honest review.
