So I was lucky enough to get an ARC of Furyborn! I finished it last week and wanted to talk to you a bit about it!
So I will NOT spoil anything in here so you're safe since it's not released yet.
Firstly it was VERY confusing the first 30% of the book because it has TWO stories happening and it switching between stories and point of views every single chapter. So between the world building and the characters it was a bit difficult to get into for me.
After I understood what was happening I started to enjoy this book more. I enjoyed the characters and how different they are from each other. My favorite character is actually a side character. Remy, who is the little brother to one of the main character, I just loved him and his drive to be a good person. The male love interests were very different and and after talking to my friend who read this about the same time as me I realize people may love one or the other or both. me and my friend liked the opposite love interests.
The female characters are also very different from each other. One knows she has to bad things to survive and one tries her best to be good but is often overcome by her anger.
THEN there's a love interest, stalker type character....I think he's a complete creep and so did my friend but he does start off as a love interest in one of the stories and he gives the storyline a very creepy feel to it.
ALSO another twist on this book is that the angels are the bad guys, THAT'S a first for me. I've never read a book where the angels are "evil"
SOUND interesting?? I really don't do it justice. BUT don't worry I'll give you more info!
When assassins ambush her best friend, Rielle Dardenne risks everything to save him, exposing herself as one of a pair of prophesied queens: a queen of light, and a queen of blood. To prove she is the Sun Queen, Rielle must endure seven elemental magic trials. If she fails, she will be executed...unless the trials kill her first.
One thousand years later, the legend of Queen Rielle is a fairy tale to Eliana Ferracora. A bounty hunter for the Undying Empire, Eliana believes herself untouchable—until her mother vanishes. To find her, Eliana joins a rebel captain and discovers that the evil at the empire's heart is more terrible than she ever imagined.
As Rielle and Eliana fight in a cosmic war that spans millennia, their stories intersect, and the shocking connections between them ultimately determine the fate of their world—and of each other.
I will definitely be picking up book two and I'm interested in finding out what happens. I'm still hopeful for for answers and happy endings!
Check it out if it interests you! the release date is MAY 22 2018!!
See you soon- Bookish Mom
