Ascendant King

The Empty Throne Trilogy, Book 3

By: Kai Butler

Narrated by: Greg Tremblay

His life is in my hands, but my heart is in his.

Miles Castillo has the one thing his mother never did: time. As he gathers new members to his pack and help in his war against House Bartlett, he can't help but wish that Cade was more than a reluctant ally. But the ice prince has made his position clear and nothing Miles can do will change the history that divides them.

Still, as they both confront the echoes of their past, they must learn to work together and find something like a middle ground. With nothing to lose, Cade and Miles must make a choice that will save both of them.

Great conclusion to the series

Although the road was long and fraught with peril, they made it to their HEA!

There are a lot of characters to keep track of in this fast paced book, but I never felt lost. Cade and Miles come back stronger than ever but I was often doubtful as to how they’d make it. Kai Butler does a good job of keeping me on the edge of my seat.

excellent! such a good ending

This lives up to the standard of all Kai’s other books and then some.

I was a bit worried what this book was going to be like emotion-wise given the extreme tension and cliffhanger from the end of the last book. But it was all worth it. The plot had a good mix of detailed scenes with complex events and interconnections, while at the same time moving through the story line with good pace. A lot starts happening before you get too deep in the book and it keeps going from there. The stakes of these final chapters just keep getting bigger.

Narration is excellent, as always

The emperor throne trilogy

The love between them was amazing I loved how strong and independent the main character was but when he was with his person, he knew he could be happy calm and let someone else take control for once

What a finish

Epic ending with a very cool plot ending. Wish it wasn’t the last of Miles and Cade but what a way to go!

this entire series

it was so good. twist and turns, love, hate, revenge and betrayal. it had it all.
