Ruthless Gods by Emily A. Duncan (Something Dark and Holy book 2)

 


SPOILER ALERT! If you haven’t read the first book in the series, Wicked Saints, Stop! I don’t want to ruin the story for you.


Please visit the Recaptains blog if you need a refresher on the first book.


“Darkness never works alone...


Nadya doesn’t trust her magic anymore. Serefin is fighting off a voice in his head that doesn’t belong to him. Malachiasz is at war with who--and what--he’s become.


As their group is continually torn apart, the girl, the prince, and the monster find their fates irrevocably intertwined. They’re pieces on a board, being orchestrated by someone… or something. The voices that Serefin hears in the darkness, the ones that Nadya believes are her gods, the ones that Malachiasz is desperate to meet—those voices want a stake in the world, and they refuse to stay quiet any longer.” - taken from Goodreads.com


Well, if that wasn’t a bombshell dropped in the opening chapters. Most of this book revolved around the ending of the first book and building up to the ending and the setup for the final book. A bit slow, the story drags and there is little action until the end. Now, onto the conclusion that promises to pack a punch.


The trilogy will be concluded with Blessed Monsters on April 6, 2021.
