Also, the comparisons to Khal Drogo are so it. That's exactly what he's like.

- Fans of ACOTAR and dystopian societies
- Someone looking for a romance with an intriguing plot
- Those who like fantasy/apocalyptic novels that centre on romance
- Readers who like (or donât mind) a bit of spice, but not just spice
- Those who liked and loved the first book (but maybe take a break between so itâs not too fresh)

âLoss is a wound that never heals. Never never never. It scabs over, and for a time you can almost forget itâs there, but then somethingâa smell, a sound, a memoryâwill split that wound right open, and youâll be reminded again that youâre not whole. That youâll never fully be whole again.â

This sequel is pretty much similar to the 1st book, one of the four horsemen (War) met the FMC(Miriam) while doing their mission. I also found Miriam and the previous one has similar traits â stubborn, strong willed and compassionate.
The world building is expanding, this time it takes place in Israel. Compare to Pestilence who works alone, War has a large camp where his captives and soldiers live. Itâs interesting that the readers got a glimpse of how life goes for those living at the camp.
Pestilence was right though, War is more ruthless and vicious compare to Pestilence. I would be terrified meeting him face to face, but not Miriam who raised up against him every chance she got.
I like seeing how War slowly changes and learn more about mercy, growing conscience and redemption throughout the story, however it was mostly centered because of his needs to be loved by Miriam.
It takes quite a while for Miriam and War to admit their feelings for each other because they argue/fight most of the time.
The level of spiciness of this book is higher than the 1st book since War definitely know his way around women compare to Pestilence.
Overall, this story is pretty enjoyable. I really like the characterâs development and the authorâs writing style - it was easy to read and conveyed the emotions very well; the feeling of loss, love and hope.
I want to keep reading this series since I heard Famine and Death gets even better so Iâm looking forward to it.
