The Curse of Death & Time by B.C. FaJohn
5.0
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I don't think it's even possible for me to describe how much I absolutely, unequivocally, loved this third installment of The Runed Series. Character growth and journey, world development, and plot.......everything was absolutely perfect. This is the kind of book that elicits several responses from me.
1. I want to re-read the entire series immediately because of this book, and I'm even more antsy for book 4.
2. I ignored everyone and everything, to the best of my ability while also being a responsible parent, to consume this book as fast as possible.
3. I suffered from "I have to read this as fast as possible to know what happens but also want to read it slower to enjoy it longer" syndrome. There is no cure.
The emotional turmoil and roller coaster that Cateline battles is nothing short of inspiring. Her grit and impossible drive, fueled by hope, was remarkable to read. No matter what happened to her, which was usually a 'one step forward, two steps back' scenario, she persisted. She constantly attributes her will to live/succeed to her rage, but really, deep down, it's her hope and love that propel her forward. Without those two things, the rage wouldn't exist.
The relationship between Caius and Cateline was organic, balanced with their sweet moments, tension and chemistry. the action was well-paced throughout, and you can feel the adrenaline, fear, terror, rage, grief, sadness, joy, relief, and all other emotions tackled.
