I couldn't stop reading this train wreck. A lot of philosophical and theological thoughts and discussions interspersed between escaping bloody attacks on a monastery, war prisoner's torture, consort duels, and episodes of brutality. I felt like the bad boy monster love interest has a split personality due to trauma but no true motive for his actions or making the choices he does. I feel almost as battered and bruised as Nadya by the end. (

Received copy as a Goodreads Giveaway, thank you! I read this book in one day not so much as it was engrossing but as it was a fairly good story and just read it to finish it. The downside was it did not "take me there" in my reading. I never got a feel for the setting or characters so I was not invested and will probably not continue on in the series but overall was a pretty good story with several elements similar to others I have read before.

CW: Blood magic blood and therefore there is a huge amount of cutting (self-harm) in this book. (

Kalyazin and Tranavia have been at war for a century and now it seems that there may be a chance to end it all. Nadya lives in Kalyazin and she has the gift of speaking to all the gods. She managed to escape when the monastery she lives in is attacked and she teams up with Malachiasz, a boy from Tranavia. Malachiasz may be from Tranavia but, like Nadya - does he want to kill the king of Tranavia and end the war? The real question is, will this fragile alliance manage to hold all the way? Meanwhile, Serefin, a young prince who has spent years fighting is now realizing that the true threat to him is not far away, but at home.

This was so good. Sure, there were some flaws in three story but overall I really liked this story. I could not put it down and finished it in two days. (
