![]() I didn't feel the story being told from someone else's point of view either. There's nothing new, nothing that we didn't guess in book 1. Quite disappointing as the chronology and the succession of events, and dialogues, are a perfect copy/paste from the first book. This is the same exact story as in the previous book, "Axios", simply narrated from Eryx's point of view. For me, the effect the king had on Axios was too much and not really understandable. The only reason I shaved off a quarter of a star was Axios and the King's relationship. He raised this book to a higher level for sure. ![]() The tones, voices, inflections, emotions. Their afterlife and how life moved on after their death. I know that some may not like to read it because it's an almost exact replica of Axios, but the ending of this one made all the difference for me. This book is an experience and it's hard to read while simultaneously be unputdownable. ![]() ![]() More than 16 years of them together, training, hurting, in love and besotted. It's not a spoiler that this book, and Axios, don't have an HEA.īut to follow their relationship from the moment they met as kids and growing up with them as their feelings shift from friends and comrades to lovers and soulmates is as epic as their love story. It's been years since I read Axios and I still cried in the end. Ugh it was worth the tears to reread Eryx's POV! ![]()
