Goodreads Synopsis:
The key to discovering
the secret behind Vald's cursed sword is somewhere in the empire of
Zenedoura. With information obtained from Limris - new companion and
former Consul of the Empire - Prince Vald decides to head there to see
what he can find. Along the way, in order to save a gravely wounded
Rulca, he deliberately chooses to turn into his demon self! Vald's
uncharacteristic recklessness provokes a tirade from Halvir, who then
leaves the group without a word...
Review:
This series is
still very plot-heavy, but still very enjoyable.
The problem with
Rulca is dealt with in this volume, and the group moves on to entering a new
town to move along the main plot. Limris is still up to something, and I don’t think I
like him. I’m honestly not hugely invested in the larger plot, even if I do
find some of it exciting.
Meanwhile, Vald is
having a hard time accepting his other self, even if he has started using it
when he needs to. Then he and Halvir have a fight, and make up with some sex.
It’s a little adorable, and then very hot, and then sweet again. I just like
them, unabashedly. I am reading this solely for them, and I am not ashamed.
Which is to say
that I will be getting the next volume, hopefully soon, just for them, and I am
excited for it.
