I hope you like Godkiller and Call Down The Hawk. I read both and liked both. Have you read other books by Kerstin Gier? I am not a fan of hers but I hope you like Vergissmeinnicht. She always has the greatest cover art!
Books 11, 12, 13 I read in/for school - but because of this, I do not particularly like them. I find reading a book in school often sucked the fun out of it - the only one I liked was Macbeth but I liked it before we read it in class. And Kabale und Liebe (Friedrich Schiller) - but again I knew this one before we talked about it in class.
I am curious, what made you pick these books?

Watercolors on paper
If you squint you will see some elephants. They are there, I swear
I will not lie, I'm proud of this one. Dudes, painting cosmos is the best
