Book Review
Game of Thrones meets The Witcher in this epic grimdark sequel to The Sword of Mercy and Wrath, where no one is safe!
After losing everything she knew, Selene struggles to keep hope alive. Terrifying threats from the capital test her in ways she never thought possible.
Richter can't destroy himself or the corruption that lives in his body. He won't let anything stop him from his mission, though - to kill every other werewolf on the Continent.
The Order of the Golden Sword cares not for the laws of men. They’ll do anything to wipe the lycanthrope haven of Palerme from existence. But no one has ever faced an army of werewolves before.
My Review
Selene is a werewolf and she's tired of losing her people to the others who hunt and kill those who are like her. I really felt sorry for all that she has to endure. She and her people just want to be left alone to live.
Richter is a werewolf but his mission in life is to kill every other werewolf he comes across. he somehow thinks that will life the werewolf curse from his body if he does. He's probably a psychopath with the way he thinks and the things he does, he's all kinds of crazy.
I didn't read the first book, The Sword of Mercy and Wrath but I was able to pick this up and read it with no problems.
This is not the paranormal romance type book that I usually read. My daughter bought this book for me when she was out with her friends and she noticed the cover. She figured it would be my kind of book. I love the cover but the story is dark, very dark. There's a lot of killing and fighting in this book because the werewolves just want to live and the ones hunting them won't let that happen.
Will I be reading the 1st or 3rd books in this series? Probably not because this was a slow read for me. Yes, a lot happens but the pace was a bit slow for me.
I give this book 3 out of 5 stars.
