4.0

This was going to be a 3.5 until the last few chapters. They really saved the slump this book would have fallen into. 

If we are still ranking Horseman Husbands 
1. Pestilence 
2. Famine 
3. War

This is definitely the best of the series so far. I must admit that famine is INCREDIBLY attractive, and the dynamic between him and Ana is perfect. The ending was amazing! It brings a new, refreshing twist to the books and promises something different besides the same algorithm that these books have followed thus far.

Higher rating because Famine didn't change. Also responsible sexual behaviour discussions pre-coitus 👍 But God, was that FMC annoying.

Read this book so quick! 

Another hit for me! 

Outside of the fact that i thought the language seemed really anachronistic to setting at times i really have no complaints and i think the final book is set up perfectly. 

Again very different main couple! Though more in common with pestilence than war i think.

Wish famine had done less plant growing and more famine stuff though.
