Welcome to Litsy!

I thought the world building was excellent. Politics, badguys and gods. Actual though not theoretical. The spice was a little more than I prefer. Also I think writing spice is tricky because it can take you out of the moment. For example there was a spicy scene in water that I'm pretty sure would have been physically impossible without someone drowning. This was #2 in a series. (I'd not read #1.) I liked the leads though which is why I finished.

I was thinking 'this book is not as metal as the last one' and then a guy ripped out his own arm bone to stab the big bad with.

Just found out this series is going to only be a trilogy?? A real bummer! I was excited about some of the quests put forth in book 1, and was hoping for books about characters I'm seeing in this book. Boo!

This series is only 2 books and a novella and I love it so much. A fantasy romance series,it has a lot going on with so many countries/geographical areas, connected characters and storylines and page turning nonstop action. It‘s a beautiful mix of magic,romance, good vs evil and redemption.

In this book an outcast soldier and a feral prince must overcome the past to save their country, as the Destroyer returns and an alliance forms to fight him.

A bit slow to start but at 25% in, the story took off. It was a colorful mix of magic, warriors, myth and forever love. Great fun! #joyousjanuary #readathon @Andrew65 #bookspinbingo @TheAromaofBooks #Pantone2022 #NorthernDroplet @Clwojick #Booked2022 @Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft

An intense and emotional second book in this historical fantasy/barbarian romance series! This is one of my favorite authors!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I loved this one more than the first book! I am a sucker for a second chance romance and Milla Vane delivers! Cannot wait to see how the overarching storyline continues. #romance #secondchanceromance #fantasy #vikings

😊 I really am enjoying this book. I was up way past my bedtime last night reading it.

Walk done and laundry in the washer. Time for reading and a treat. 😁🍿

My local movie theater is doing curbside giant bags of popcorn today and tomorrow. So I was absolutely there at 4pm when they started to get my popcorn. About to do some reading with a popcorn treat. 😁🍿

Received this ARC this morning and started it on my break this afternoon. I LOVED the first book in this series. 😄
