katharina90's review against another edition

adventurous dark tense slow-paced

• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

1.5

I think I've lost any and all interest in this series because this book bored me to tears, but I feel like I have to push through and finish this series.

I will say, I did appreciate that the author provided a recap of previous events in the beginning of the book because it was much needed.

I don’t know why I keep reading the books in this series.  They are getting more and more predictable which doesn’t leave much room for enjoyment or entertainment.

This series keeps getting better with each book! I can’t wait for the final book! The cliffhanger is still in my brain days later, can’t stop thinking of not only Prisca and Lorian but some many of the side characters. I need more Demos and Ascinia! And I need to find out what happens to everyone!
