Flavius Julius Constans was born around 320 to Fausta and Constantine I. He
became Caesar in 333, and when the empire was divided after Constantine .



In 340, Constantine II invaded Constans’ territory and was killed, so Constans
became sole ruler in the west. He successfully fought the barbarians for the
next ten years, but in 350 heard about the revolt of Magnentius and headed for
Augustodunum. Constans fled to Spain, but was murdered in the Pyrenees at the
fortress of Helene.Flavius Julius Constans or as he was simply known, Constans,
was a Roman emperor who enjoyed quite a lengthy reign from the year 337 AD to
the year 350 AD. He was born sometime in the year 320 AD (the exact date of his
birth is unknown to this day) as the third and youngest son of the then Roman
emperor Constantine I and his wife Fausta. Fausta was the second wife of
Constantine I.



From the year 337 AD, Constans actually shared the rule over the entire Roman
Empire equally with his two brothers, Constantius II and Constantine II. The
relationship between the brothers was not all that amicable although it started
that way. Constans and Constantine II in particular were given to violent
confrontations.



Constantine II sought to take advantage of his younger brother's youth and
relative inexperience in handling matters of the state, a treatment that
eventually led to open warfare. Constantine II set forth to invade Italy in the
year 340 AD but his younger surprised him with an astounding command over his
armed forces. Their conflict led them to a battle in Aquileia where against all
expectations, the younger brother along with his armed forces prevailed over the
elder brother and Constantine II subsequently died from wounds that he received
during the said battle.



The years from 341 AD to 342 AD found Constans engaged in yet another military
campaign this time against the Franks. According to numerous reports from that
period, this campaign was hugely successful and contributed further to his
reputation as a formidable military leader.



While it was mentioned in the works of the writer Julius Firmicus Maternus that
Constans visited Britain in the very early part of the year 343 AD, the writer
did not go into detail about the Roman emperor's reasons for doing so. This
visit to Britain has been recorded in various historical accounts as the last
known visit of a Roman emperor to the country.



While the reason's for this journey has remained a mystery until this present
time, some theories have been put forth regarding the reasons behind this
journey. Some claim that it was a trip born out of the necessity of quashing a
rebellion of some kind. Still other reports have suggested that it was in direct
retaliation against the military advances of the Picts and the Scots.



In any case, it was known that he traversed the treacherous English Channel at a
time when such a trip was particularly hazardous; during the bitter cold winter
months. That he chose to undertake such a journey at a particularly dangerous
time-along with the blinding speed in which he undertook the operation-suggests
that it was a matter of extreme urgency, which bolstered that the theory that
the journey was taken in response to a particularly pressing military emergency.



The year 350 AD brought a further conflict to Constans' immediate attention. The
general Magnentius proclaimed himself the new rightful emperor and in a battle
between the two factions, Constans was cornered and killed. He died in the year
350 AD.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.
