Echoes and Empires, by Morgan Rhodes
4.0
I didn't realize this was an urban fantasy! It was weird because it FELT like a high fantasy... but then they'd be like, "He pulled out a cell phone." And I'm like, "Oh." So it was a weird kind of mix that I'm not 100% sure how to explain.
I did enjoy this, but I think I've realized I prefer my fantasies to have more than one perspective (I especially don't think I like first person fantasy anymore) and to just be more expansive, much like Fallen Kingdoms was. I did enjoy this, and I enjoyed the budding romance.

WAIT WAIT I DIDN'T KNOW MORGAN RHODES WAS WRITING ANOTHER BOOK!!!!!

I loooove necromancy in stories, so I did like the Elian storyline. Kind of wished he'd been more zombie-like at the end. But still, excited to see where this goes.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
