First thing I must say is that if you are expecting the typical action / paranormal romance Kenyon and Love usually write, you will be disappointed. This series is more fantasy. Imagine a mix between the gods and goddesses of her Dark Hunters and Gena Showalters Alien Huntress and you have Belador. There are no steamy love scenes although there are romantic interests.
I absolutely adored the first book Blood Trinity but found this one sorely lacking. I still love all the wonderful characters but at the end of the book I didnt feel it went anywhere. I understand that with a series sometimes there are things left in the open for the next book but there should at least be a bit of closure. Here you have a little bit. I feel like after 300+ pages the story just took a little baby step. I did develop a huge hatred of the gods and goddesses in the book, but thats about it.
I will continue to read the series just because I really enjoy the characters. I just hope the next book would be better.

There are many twists and turns to the story line, so if you're looking for a book that doesn't follow the regular plot you'll love this book. If you're a reader that must understand everything that is happening and why, you probably won't like it. There are many subplots that I enjoyed and many others that were brought up and then dropped. Maybe they'll be continued in the next book and make more sense. I guess I'm one of those readers that wants to understand everything while I read it :)
