”I will make it a nightmare on my own terms if i must.”
This series makes me more nostalgic for the YA fantasy I read as a teen more than any sequel to the series I actually read as a teen could.
Bloodmarked is a jammed-pack twisty sequel that expands on the world and characters, in particular fleshing out how the broader fantasy world works and characters such as Sel and William (my sons). Though the pacing could’ve been better, there’s a lot that happens in this and it at times can feel random or plotless.
