First book review of the new year!
I'm not sure why, but I didn't like this one as much as I did when I read Ares' book. Limos was a great heroine- until her lies started catching up to her. The more she continued to lie, the more guilt festered and the worser she became. I initially liked her relationship with Arik and was actually interested in it... but in the end, I thought it was okay. It was nice seeing past characters again and I enjoyed reading about Shade and Runa. I would actually like to re-read their story again. Wait no, probably the entire Demonica series again because I've mostly forgotten certain details and etcetera.
I personally found Reaver and his relationship with Harvester to be quite fascinating. His dirty little secret was interesting because it further hints of his desires towards Harvester and future books of course. (Which obviously came true!) Although he'll most likely want to kill her first after what she did to him. I also liked Thanatos and Regan's burgeoning romance despite it ending in disaster. *SPOILER ALERT* I'm still pissed at you, Regan! You better redeem yourself because forcing yourself on Thanatos was just NO. That was really stupid on the Aegis' part. *END SPOILER* Pestilence, aka Reseph, continues to be number one asshole material and villain who should just die in a fire or get pushed off a cliff. I'm mildly joking, of course; but seriously, he needs to be good again! I hate what he's doing to his siblings and would like to see a glimpse of the person he was before he became evil. I mean we do get a few teases and hints but I want more!
In the end, while I didn't enjoy this one as much, Larissa Ione continues to deliver! I'm really looking forward to reading Thanatos' book and then Reseph's and Reaver's. I doubt Thanatos will forgive Regan for what she did right away. It's definitely going to be interesting.
Rating: ★★★★☆
