People lived because she killed. People died because he lived.

Zafira is the Hunter, disguising herself as a man when she braves the cursed forest of the Arz to feed her people. Nasir is the Prince of Death, assassinating those foolish enough to defy his autocratic father, the sultan. If Zafira was exposed as a girl, all of her achievements would be rejected; if Nasir displayed his compassion, his father would punish him in the most brutal of ways. Both Zafira and Nasir are legends in the kingdom of Arawiya--but neither wants to be.

War is brewing, and the Arz sweeps closer with each passing day, engulfing the land in shadow. When Zafira embarks on a quest to uncover a lost artifact that can restore magic to her suffering world and stop the Arz, Nasir is sent by the sultan on a similar mission: retrieve the artifact and kill the Hunter. But an ancient evil stirs as their journey unfolds--and the prize they seek may pose a threat greater than either can imagine.


Vilken bergodalbana! Jag gillade denna bok den bjöd på många känslor, skratt och gråt och allt där emellan. Flera olika karaktärer som alla hade sin charm och som växte på en under bokens gång. Språket var mestadels bra dock förekom det många ord man inte förstod men under bokens gång så vande man sig vid detta. Det slut jag hade hoppats på från början ändrade sig och istället började jag snart hoppas på något helt annat.

Review: Blood Mercy by Vela Roth

Image
Blood Mercy by Vela Roth My rating: 4 of 5 stars One human. One immortal. Will their alliance save the kingdom, or will their forbidden love be a death sentence? When Cassia seeks out a Hesperine, he could end her mortal life in a heartbeat. But she has no fear of his magic or his fangs. She knows the real monster is the human king, her father. If he finds out she’s bargaining with his enemy, he’ll send her to the executioner. As a Hesperine diplomat, Lio must negotiate with mortals who hate him. Cassia is different, but politics aren't why she captivates the gentle immortal. He wants more than her blood, and if he can’t resist the temptation, he’ll provoke the war he's trying to prevent. I liked this book, however, the pace was a bit too slow to maintain my interest, it took a long time for me to get through the book. It took a long time for the book and the plot to get going. After about 250 pages, the action took off. This book also offere...

En del kommer det en man dit som vill ha hennes hjälp att laga sin android. Cinder hjälper honom gärna med det men vad hon inte visste var att det var självaste prinsen som kom och bad henne om hjälp. Samtidigt sker det en katastrof i byn, pesten bryter ut och många blir drabbade och många dör. Personal i det kungliga forskningscentret jobbar för fullt för att kunna hitta ett botemedel. Under tiden blir Cinder utsatt för många prövningar! Kan hon hjälpa till? Eller ska hon bara rymma? Om jag ska vara ärlig så hade jag lite svårt för denna bok. När jag läst ungefär halva så kände jag mest bara för att strunta i den. Sen tänkte jag att eftersom att jag ändå har läst så pass mycket som jag hade så bestämde jag mig för att läsa klart den. Och tur var väl det! Andra halvan av boken var bet...

Bookreview: Dark Heart by Donna Grant

  Title:  Dark Heart Author:  Donna Grant Series:  Elven Kingdoms Series, Book 2 Publisher:  DL Grant, LLC Release Date:  November 12, 2024 ISBN/ASIN:   B0CWX5Q9RP Format:  Kindle, E-ARC Book Pages: 406 4/5 ⭐ Deepest passion. Darkest betrayal. Once, she was my world. The only one I loved. Then it was all ripped away—including my freedom. Vengeance kept me alive. It paved every step, shaped every plot. Until I finally caught her. I learned that line between love and hate is wafer-thin. Where once my dreams were filled with revenge, now that I have her, all I think about is the intoxicating passion we once shared. But there’s no turning back the events her capture has set into motion. It unravels a carefully constructed world, one where enemies surround me. Everyone, that is, except her. Now, we only have each other—and the love that once united us, to fight our way to long-buried truths that will change everything. (From Goodreads) My Review T...
