Grudging: Birth of Saints Book One by Michelle Hauck
5.0
A really great read. Engaging story with tons of twists and turns, and plenty to love... (see below)
Some absolute highlights:
-The Shakespearean-feeling witty banter between the crew heading off on adventure.
-So many interesting POV characters! I love seeing a story from different sides, and this one delivers on that for sure. The reader gets to see so many angles.
-Some really heartbreaking moments. Wow. I was totally surprised by a certain scene that I won't spoil. But no punches are pulled.
Can't wait for the next book. I loved the world and loved the descriptions of the city. You can really see things unfold in your mind.
Also I have no desire to ever go to a swamp after reading this! ha :)
