Midnight Thief, Book 2 Daughter of Dusk | Livia Blackburne
4 posts | 8 read | 8 to read
After learning the truth about her bloodlines, Kyra can't help but feel like a monster. Though she's formed a tentative alliance with the Palace, Kyra must keep her identity a secret or risk being hunted like the rest of her Demon Rider kin. Tristam and the imprisoned assassin James are among the few who know about her heritage, but when Tristam reveals a heartbreaking secret of his own, Kyra's not sure she can trust him. And with James's fate in the hands of the palace, Kyra fears that he will give her away to save himself. As tensions rise within Forge's Council, and vicious Demon Rider attacks continue in surrounding villages, Kyra knows she must do something to save her city. But she walks a dangerous line between opposing armies: will she be able to use her link to the Demon Riders for good, or will her Makvani blood prove to be deadly? In this spellbinding sequel to "Midnight Thief," Kyra and Tristam face their biggest battle yet as they grapple with changing allegiances, shocking deceit, and vengeful opponents.

Ah book 2 was just as good as the first one...if not better. Kyra still gets injured a lot but she finds out a lot of secrets and surprises. Nice happy ending.

I‘ve been listening to more audiobooks this year bc it allows me to read while working. However, since I‘m multitasking, I try to pick audiobooks that are relatively simple (not too many characters, or complex world-building, or beautiful, rich language). This book fit the bill, but the problem is, I LIKE highly complex books with lots of layers. So while I was entertained enough, this series isn‘t really my thing.

Just okay. Kept weirding me out that the mc is named similarly to my sister.
