The premise of the book and characters initially were very interesting. The story progressed without enough content and context in some area. The pacing felt off, with Lucia’s arrival to the Underworld and how only bits and pieces were coming together slowly. Her sudden cold shoulder to Arafel after his injuries despite the feelings between them was almost childish.

Her character waffled between being receptive to this new life to wanting to go back to the way things were, which obviously she couldn’t do.

I don’t think I will continue the series but appreciate the opportunity to have read this first one to know this is just not for me.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
