Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. Great read. A little confusing as this is Volume 2, but that is a minor issue. Loved the story and the premise - mixing paranormal with mythology. The story was strong, enjoyed meeting all of the characters. Be prepared - some foul language and sexual content.

I wish I'd realized this was book 2 sooner: I spent a whole lot of time being very confused! Intriguing world, a couple of interesting characters. I'm curious enough to maybe go back at read book 1, especially since I've enjoyed other stories by Leah Cutter, but I'll say that unlike previous books which I've read nearly cover-to-cover, I think this book had kind of weird pacing due to the interspersed larp sequences. In hindsight, I probably could have skipped them and not missed much story, and they felt like they just slowed the pacing down and introduced characters who I didn't know enough about to care about them. Definitely not my favourite from Leah Cutter, although the premise is interesting enough to shine through some weird cutscenes. Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. A rather depressing book, though it ends on a better note. I haven't read the first Cassie book, and I'm mildly interested in doing so; I'm more interested in seeing where she goes from here. The world is intriguing, the threat is _weird_ (both the actual threat and the angle it comes from), the characters are a bit hard to take. Cassie's screwed up her life pretty badly, and knows it; she spends rather too much time focusing on all the dead ends before her. And I don't think her relationship with Sam is all that healthy (though it may improve, now that she's not coasting. Assuming she doesn't!). Hunter is more broken than he appears to be at the beginning - I thought he was just handling things from a weird angle, but he's really not fully functional. Still the best warrior, but he seems mentally rather too fragile. And what's to become of him? He's still/again a fugitive at the end of the book... I found it hard to find anyone in the book I really wanted to read about - Steve was probably the most stable person there, and he's pretty peripheral. A lot of interesting detail on the Blessed and how different sorts of powers work; meddling by various gods (some left over from the previous book, some new in this one); way too much brooding about messed-up lives and how there was no way out. Glad I read it, will look for the next one and perhaps the previous one, but unless the series gets a lot brighter I don't think I'll reread. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
